Claudia and Family,
We share your heartbreak - for how does one ever replace their mom!! - but you see she is replaced in the hearts and soul of each of you - her children, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren - a piece of her remains through each of you forever - that is God's way of sharing his gift of her love for each of you! I only remember meeting her and seeing her surrounded by tons of love and Christmas presents and always dressed is a precious sport outfit - looking
pretty as ever. You always attended to her with the best of care and dignity and love. You all returned the love and pride she had in each of you. Now you have another angel in heaven and she will protect and guide you from afar although she will remain close at heart always. What better place can she be than to live her eternal life with our Lord in heaven! God Bless all of you in this time of pain and loss - but be at peace with her deep love for you, her dedicated life to her family and hard work in Illinois - she has earned her rest. She dedicated her life like moms do!!! God Bless each of you! Keep her always close at heart! Love, Marianne, Bob and Bobby

ps. How blessed we all are to have had the great
moms we did!!!

Ms. Ruth was a joy to be around. As staff members of Good Samaritan Society, we got to see her most days.
I enjoyed visiting with her and seeing her Betty Boop collection. She will be greatly missed by us who loved her. May the joy of knowing that she is now in God's hands bring you peace at this time of sorrow.

Dear Claudia and family,
You have my deepest sympathies in the passing of you mother. Though I never knew her, I am sure that the spunk and humor that I find defines Claudia must be a reflection of your mother. While I am in FL until March, rest assured my thoughts are with you. God Bless each of you and strengthen you as you celebrate the life of Ruth.
Sincerely,
Ken
