It's hard to believe Ruthie has been gone 3 years.
She is still with me when I play golf at Paradise Valley Golf Course every week in the summer. We had such good times--she was a great lady and a wonderful friend.

Ruth Ross was a dear, dear friend. I miss talking with her, but I know she is with me every time I am on a golf course--I feel her presence!
Hope her family is doing well.

To Ruth's Family....I think of your Mom on every golf course I play with the girls who knew her...she was so much fun and such an elegant lady. My thoughts are with you this holiday season--may your wonderful memories carry you through.

Ruth was a true Southern lady. Sweet and strong. I loved talking to her. Was very thankful to know her for the 25 years I worked at Bonhomme
