On behalf of the Society of Former Special Agents of the FBI I want to extend our condolences to the family. The newspaper obituary did not include her employment with the FBI. Today's Society email newsletter contained a listing of her death.

Ruth, and her many talents, was certainly a force to be reckoned with and did so mightily. I believe she would say her greatest achievement was her family, whom she loved beyond measure. It was a pleasure to know you, "Ruthie", you will be missed.

I am so sorry for your loss. Your mother certainly accomplished many things in her life. Her biggest accomplishment was parenting her children who continue making this world a better place. My heart goes out to all of you.
