Not sure what to say?

i would like to tell Ruth's daughter how I came to meet her mother on one winter's day. it was quite an experience.

Ruth was as wonderful woman who befriended me when I was a young mother. I so enjoyed my time with Ruth and Dr. Towers, and was so awed by Ruth's talent, warmth and zest for life, that my daughter's middle name is Ruth.

Bravo bravo sweet lady, to a life well lived!!!

So very sorry to learn of Mrs Towers passing. I grew up living next door to Dr & Mrs Towers. Many of my childhood memories consist of sitting in my bedroom listening to Mrs Towers on her piano. It will be very difficult for my parents to find neighbors as wonderful as your parents both were. Cayuga Street has certainly lost an icon.
