I remember Ruth as quiet, brilliant and driven. We were high school classmates and college acquaintances and ran into each other at least once at NIH. Vince, I am so sorry for your loss. Sincerely, Hollis Raphael Weisman

Ruth, you and I, Tony (Antonio Magri) graduated from NHS in 1970. Not sure we ever knew each other. Sorry for your passing. Condolences to Vincent, daughters and grandchildren. If you ever attended St. John the Evangelist Church, I was a lector for many years and have been a EEM since 2018. Rest in peace dear friend. Anthony Magri.
