It was always an interesting day with Mr.Rueswald. He always spoke his mind with a laugh and a spirit like no other. Helping take care of Mr.Rueswald these few years at Cabot Health & Rehab with so many others was a pleasure and we will miss him greatly. We send our prayers and condolences and love.

We loved Billy Joe. I can remember all the good times my dad, Bob Olmsted had with Billy Joe working on the wrecked cars from the car auction. Dad and Billy Joe and Mom, Theresa Olmsted spent many days talking and telling good old stories.\ over coffee. He found me one of the cars I drove. I was so excited. My Dad and Billy Joe are probably having fun duck hunting in heaven. Sending my prayers to the family. Love Theresa Olmsted, Alan Olmsted and Vicky Olmsted
