We were so very sorry to hear of Ruth's passing. She was such a delightful lady--always smiling and upbeat. My last conversation with her was in her own back yard; I'm so glad I stopped that day. Ruth and Jake were lifelong friends of my Mom and Dad. As a child, I remember many social times together with the Earhart family. May she rest in peace now in her eternal home with the God she loved so dearly.

How saddened we were to hear of Ruth's passing. Although we have never met Ruth we couldn't help but feel as though we did because Tish spoke of you so often.The stories of Ruth's baking, opera fudge recipe and creativity were sweet. We know without a doubt that part of Ruth will live through Tish in stories , sweet remembrances and Tish's God given talents.
