I knew Ruth from Park Fair Mall days. My father owned Christian Photography
& Camera store. Ruth was a very kind hearted woman who's smile lit up the room! I'ts been many years since I've seen her. I am very sad for your family. Ruth would always talk to me and give me advice about my first born son who had a brain tumor. She was a very loving lady with a positive outlook on life.
Please know that others are thinking of you at this time.
May God Bless

I did not personally know Ruth, but I knew her through her daughter Judy, my friend. I am certain that Ruth was a wonderful, loving and caring person, who valued her family and friends. I know that Judy and her family will greatly miss their Mom/Grandma and will forever cherish and treasure her memory.
My thoughts and prayers are with the family. My God bless them with His peace and promise of a heavenly reunion.
