Dear Barbara and Family, it was our privilege to care for Bill during these final months. We got to know him, and were so glad that we could bring him some comfort. Bill served in our military during a very tenuous period in our nation's history...post Korean War and early on in the Cold War. Men like Bill stepped up in order to keep us all safe; we owe him a debt that can never be repaid. God bless, and we will keep the Ruch family in our thoughts and prayers.

Bill was my oldest friend. I lived a couple doors away and would go there to play. He had nice toys!! We graduated from Whitehall together. I was 6 days older. We joined the Air Force together.So to say the least we were close as brothers. God bless his family.
