Ruth was such a lovely sweet lady who loved Dean and her family so very much. We were glad when we saw Ruth when we got into town. She will be missed so much but we know she is with Jesus walking the streets if gold. May the Lord comfort your hearts. Much love, Dave and Ginger

Aunt Ruth, you were the definition of a lady to me. Always prim, proper, and very stylish. Of course, our side of the family doesn't get together as often as we should, but we love you and uncle Dean. I will always cherish the memories of the times we all got together.
