Celebrating the life of a talented Dr. Ruth Westheimer that she was very brilliant, yet passionate with her work as sex therapist who became a pop culture icon thanks to her TV and radio appearances. I truly think that everyone remembers watching her on TV the Dr Ruth Show in the 80´s, she give out brilliant advice when people call in for advices.
We all know that she´s in a good place now, has reunited with her husband Fred. Also, Dr. Ruth was a Mother, a Mother-In-Law & a Grandmother too, now they both looking down of all you.
ETERNAL REST
GRANT UNTO THEM, O LORD
AND LET PERPETUAL LIGHT
SHINE UPON THEM.
MAY THEIR SOULS
AND THE SOULS OF ALL THE
FAITHFUL DEPARTED
THROUGH THE MERCY OF GOD
REST IN PEACE.
AMEN.
In verdant pasture he gives me respose; besides restful waters he leads me; he refreshes my soul.
Only goodness and kindness follows me all the days of my life; and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD for years to come.
Deepest Sympathy To the Dr. Ruth Westheimer Family,
My thoughts, prayers are with you, your family.
