Our heartfelt sympathy and condolences to Uncle Al, Cousin Mark, Aunt Carolyn, Uncle George, Aunt Pat and all our Facer family and friends of Aunt Ruth. I have many wonderful memories of our family reunion visits celebrating holidays and special occasions and also remember fondly the trip to their lake house and going boating.
