The stories of your life and your laughs we will long be remembered by me. You had an unwavering drive to help anyone you could and always set things straight. Your love for cooking,canning,sewing and gardening were all how you expressed yourself and showed love. Your smile and giggle will linger with me and to know you are back with Ed again truly makes me smile. I will miss you Ruth I'm so glad we met. Ruth, please keep your eyes on me always...
