To Glen and the Pinchot family, I am so sorry to hear of Ruthie's passing. She was such a blessing. I loved to hear her play piano on Sundays. And if memory serves me correctly, she brought her accordian and played when we would go caroling at Christmas time. She is healed now. Love and miss all of you.
