Ruth must have been the best mother in the world because Rick Fox is one of the best persons I have ever met. Never have I known a son love his mother more. And I know Ralph was like another son because he loved her well, too.

Rick,
I was so happy to meet your sweet mother a number of years ago and then enjoyed seeing her off and on over the past five years. She was without question a lovely southern gentlewoman, with a genuine smile and welcoming demeanor. It was obvious how much she loved you and Ralph, and your devotion toward her was obvious.
Please know that the best of her lives on in you and her other children. I am keeping you all close in my thoughts during this difficult time.

It feels just like yesterday when I meet your mother and her wonderful family. I feel the pain of this moment with tears in my eyes and sadness in my heart. I offer you and your entourage my deepest condolences. I pray for your mother and her loved ones.

Rick,
I am very sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. I met her a few times and could sense your love and admiration of her immediately. I looked at the photographs shown in the online guest book and just loved looking at your family pictures. Your mother was just beautiful. I especially liked her portrait in her lovely white dress as a young lady; and she in her bobby socks and saddle shoes is so cute! I hope those photographs and your memories bring you all much comfort.
Michael and I extend our most sincere condolences to you and your entire family.
