Deepest heartfelt sympathy to Ruth and her family. It was a privilege to have known her during our school years. She always had a smile and big "Hello" when we entered her home. She will be missed by everyone who knew her.

Dear Aunt Ruth,

I will always remember you greeting everyone with a beautiful smile. Always stunning looking even when you weren't feeling well. Now you and Uncle Charles and my Grandmother are once again together in peace. Continue to shine your smile down upon us from above. Rest in Peace.
