Aunt Ruth was a character. We never knew what she would do next. She was my Great Aunt, she was my Grandmother V. Irene´s sister.
I am V. Irene Smiths Granddaughter, my mother was Lucretia Ann (Pat) Smith Kocher Ringwalt

She was the best grandmama that any girl could have dreamt of. I will miss her the rest of my days, and pray that she and Daddy are reunited in Heaven along with every loved one we have lost in our family. She will live forever through her family with memories of a soft spoken woman with eyes that sparkled.

I knew Mrs. Denton, when she lived at Creekside Village Apartments. I will miss her sweet laughter and soft words very much.
