Mom, as I always knew her is & was always in my heart.
I will always remember the many years of lunches, dinners, holidays, road trips we shared.
She was an outstanding person & will be missed not only by me but the many lives she touched.
My Sympathy to all who loved her.

My grandmother was one of the most honest and true people I have ever known. She would never judge you she would just ask you to do better. She was always happy to sit with you and play a game of cards or yattze. She had a never ending supply of cookies and barking spiders in the kitchen lol. Most of all she loved you with all of her self. I truely believe that my grandma is one of the few people that god has saved a place for in heaven. I will love and miss her for all of my days and will see her and grandpa eventualy at the pearly gates.

Sincere sympathy to the Workman family. I remember Mrs. Workman as a warm and gentle lady from Linden Nazarene Church many years ago.

The meaning of Mom's name is so fitting to her personality. Ruth means friend, companion and as an English noun, 'ruth' means "pity; compassion" and is a synonym of mercy and sympathy.
Always giving and helping others. I remember Mom coming to the hospital during a terrible blizzard when Shannon was born like it was a sunny day outside. She was the only visitor I saw on the maternity floor that day!
She was always there to help whether it was taking me to the hospital, nursing me back to health after surgery, helping me learn "Stretch & Sew", making me a beautiful blazer, or helping me get a new place - no other mother-in-law was ever Mom. Only her.
God has just welcomed a special angel. God Bless.

My heartfelt sympathy to all of Ruth's family. I knew both Ruth and Chester, and also Helen Summers (Ruth's mother) from our days at Bellow's Ave. Nazarene Church. She left a lasting memory of her love for Christ to all who knew her.
God Bless All of You!

Mom was one of the most wonderful people I have ever known. I have been so blessed to have her for my Mother-In-Law. She will be dearly missed.
