DEAR CHARLIE, CHARLENE & JOHN...
WE ARE SORRY TO HEAR OF RUTH`S PASSING. OUR LAST MEMORY OF HER WAS AT THE CARPENTER REUNION. IT WAS GREAT THAT WE ALL CAME TOGETHER & ENJOYED THE DAY AFTER SO MANY YEARS OF NOT SEEING ONE ANOTHER. I CAN REMEMBER BEING WITH AUNT GEN, UNCLE JOHN, RUTH & DORIS BACK IN THE EARLY 1930`S WHEN I USE TO VISIT OR STAY AT THEIR HOME AT THE FARM.
