I'm so sorry to hear of Ruth's. Loosing a loved one is never easy. I lost my dad in 2010, and my mom in 2012. After my losses, reading Revelation 21:3,4 gave me real comfort. It says: And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away. I hope reading these verses also give you comfort during this difficult time. GW

I shall so very much miss my conversations with Ruth while both at our local Northland Walmart. For some reason we generally picked the same day of the week for our excursions. She would generally recognize me first and greet me "Well Hello again! your Mitch's friend aren't you?". Then we would chat for some time about lots of topics and I would help her get items off top shelves. I shall miss her friendly smile and know she is still smiling down at all of us.
