Wrapping your family in love. Jack and Ruth have been wonderful and supportive friends of ours for decades. We especially give thanks for Jack's supportive gesture to Bob in getting him on the golf course years ago. Jack kindly and patiently gave Bob tips on how to play golf with a physical handicap. Jack played a fatherly role to Bob that day, and we will hold in our memory, the true gift of friendship he bestowed to Bob. Ruth and Jack have embodied the definition of support, love and commitment in their marriage. They are what we aspire to reach in our marriage when our days on this earth have ceased. May Ruth and her family hold on to the memories they made to sustain them. We love you Ruth and hold your family near to our hearts and prayers.
