Not sure what to say?

In loving memory of my dear friend Ruthie, affectionately known to me and my family. And the Tollefsbol family for trusting me to care for mom. What a precious soul you were, we often talk about the memories we made with you.

Thinking of you and missing you. Your beauty, thoughtfulness and kindness was always evident to your family and all who knew you. May God bless and keep you eternally. You are always in my thoughts and prayers.

What wonderful memories I have of Ruth from the visit my sister, Marlene, and I made to Houston in May of 2016 Ruth recognized us and was engaged and participating all the days of our visit. She and her family were so very welcoming and made our visit wonderful. Rest in God's peace, Ruth.

Terry and all the family, my mother, Jessie T. Cobb, and I were deeply saddened to hear of Zip's passing and we know she will be missed by everyone who knew and loved her. We are keeping all of you in our thoughts and prayers. God bless you. We love you all.

Dear Ryan, Petra, and all the Tollefsbol family,
I have heard many endearing stories about your beloved grandmother/mother over the years from Ryan and our daughter, Laura. I only talked with her once, when she kindly called me after my mother died. I know she has been the beloved center of your family in so many ways. We send our sympathy and love, Cynthia and Clyde Sweet

To the family of my dear friend Ruth, who I affectionately called Rutie. Thank you for allowing me to care for and to spend time knowing Ruth.
We shared many times of laughter, singing and dancing. Rutie loved on my children, friends and grands whenever they were around. She will be greatly missed.

I have many wonderful memories of Ruth. Most of them center around the time Carol and I started vacationing in Texas. I can remember visiting her for a lunch. You would think she had roller skates on because she moved so fast and non-stop.

Carol and I loved her with all our hearts. We will miss her dearly.

" Your grandmother sounds like a wonderful person Lyndsey...What wonderful memories she left you with. It appears that Heaven needs her more now. Thank you for sharing your memories with us..."

So sorry to hear of the passing of "Grandma Tolley" as she was known to all. She was a beautiful person and had a beautiful spirit. I will truly miss her. My deepest sympathy to all the family. I know she is with God now and her earthly suffering is over. God bless her and all her children, grand and great grandchildren.
