My sister is at the Royal and I had the pleasure of meeting Ruth.
I loved her spirit when it came to the Patriots, Red Sox, or the Political situation of the day we always had a great chat!
Her family was always in our conversation she truly was a rock, and a genuine type of Lady. Glad to have met her.
