Wow its surprising to see its been a year since you passed. There isn't a day that passes when I think of when I first moved in to breezewood wand met you, Janet, and vicki. It was the little group I hung around with. Now with you and Janet gone and vicki in Florida I lost that little group. I miss you. Your family has always been in my prayers.

I want to offer my condolences to the family especially Doug who I got to know when he would visit Ruth at her place where I lived in the same building. She was a great friend who I got to know when I moved into my apartment in Hartland. I miss her as she was the last of the few friends i had. Within a year one friend moved and 2 passed away. I will have to do a shot of Rumchata in her honor. It was one drink she liked. If anyone had any computer issues Ruth was quick to say "Give Brian a call he is the Breezewood computer guru" even though I just knew enough about computers to put into a thimble. Again I am sorry learning about her passing and wish I knew about her memorial before I volunteered this weekend. I wanted to be there. Everyone is in my prayers. God Bless Everyone.
