Ruthelle was one of the kindness people I have ever met. She brought joy to all who met her. When I began ballroom dancing, she was generous and patient, teaching me many basics of ballroom. She was an extraordinary dancer and a lovely person. I send my heartfelt condolences to her family. I will remember her always. She was a wonderful friend to so many.
