Tim and Family...sorry to hear of your mom's passing. There's no one like your mom, her unconditional love, happy,loving and caring spirit cannot be replaced. But, you have been truly blessed by her life and can cherish the many memories. I am sure she brought joy to all the people who were fortunate to know her.

It sounds as though she was a hard working woman so know that she is now in the hands of a just God. I pray for her eternal rest.

Our prayers are with each of you, Tim, David, and Barb, Ruth will always remain special in my heart of her love and being a mother to me. I am so thankful to have known her and blessed to call her my friend. She was always giving and pouring into others lives. I worked at Taggarts with her for 3 yrs. She became a prayer warrior for me and my husband when we went into mission. She loved our first born jesse and showed us the love of a mother and Grandmother. She will always be close in our hearts and we will be reunited in Heaven. Jesse and Kimberly Johnston
