Ruth was a dynamic intern here at Leslie Middle School. Her command of her classroom was evident even then. No arguing with Ms. Pridgeon, but she was always ready with that great smile! Aloha...

Ruth was a delightful lady with many skills. I love the memories of our conversations. Also the food she brought to the tail gate, especially the scallop potatoes. Haven't had any since.. We loved her and will miss seeing her at the Pridgeon open.

Ooche,
I will always keep you in my heart remembering all the GREAT times we have had together. One comes to mind the time you highlighted my hair and it was ORANGE when we got done. Jeff was laughing as were we especially after the bottle of wine. Then off to the soccer game for all the rest to see the new hair do. You will be missed and know that you will always be loved by me and have a very special place in my heart. Thank you for all that you have taught me. I love you Stacey

Mrs Pridgeon took my son under her wings when he struggled with school and she would often run out to my car to talk with me because she knew I was ill and it was hard for me to come in at times. She always should how much she cared and she will be greatly missed and was a great assest to the children she taught and her friends and family! You will be missed!!!
