Ruth told the best jokes ever and she could tell them as long as you would listen, she was the longest friend I had in this town and I have so many stories I can't just pick one. I will miss her so much and every time I play dice with the dice she gave me I will remember her beautiful smile.

It´s been a lifetime since we spent time together with `Ruthie´. As young children/cousins we spent fun time at our mutual grandparents home Rose and Tex Skiles in Portland Oregon. Fast forward to now, connecting with one of Ruth´s daughters through Facebook / Ancestry.com we kept updated on your life in AZ. I can say that she is proud of her family, and how all of you are navigating her untimely passing. Take care of yourselves and also take comfort in the love you all shared. Janet Paulsen / Swanson
