With sympathy to the Thompson Bridge family. How wonderful it is to have friends to comfort you, memories of the times you shared with Ruth, perhaps by looking at her photos. True, remembering those times might be painful at first, In time, though, these memories may help you to heal rather than cause you to hurt. Wishing you healing.

My late father, Joe Marie, served in the Navy with your father. He developed a strong friendship with both your parents and often reminisced about wonderful times with Ruthie and Dick. He considered them to be very special people. My mother Dorothy and I send our sympathy to all of you at this sad time.
