Ruth was a wonderful woman! She had the prettiest blue eyes. She also loved ice cream. She has a very loving and beautiful family! She will be missed.

I remember Mrs. Tolman lived across the street from us in Westborough. I mowed the Tolman's lawn in the summer of '68, the year they moved to Berlin.
