RIP Mom, you will always be in my heart❤️
So sorry for your loss! Ruth was always a pleasure to be around.
Thank you Kara and Kyle. Too many good times. The King Cake you guys sent her and sent her the message that she didn’t have to share it Sam and Janet but could if she wanted. The toy cell phone Kyle gave her on her birthday in a gift bag because she said she would never have one she didn’t like talking on the phone anyway. And the Maxine Card that Read: You better get well. Inside: There aren’t that many people I like. So appreciate Kyle for readings at the mass, such an honor to mom.
RIP Ruth you will be missed but in our hearts
RIP Ruth you will be missed but not forgotten always in our hearts.
Thank you Eileen. You are reight we are going to miss Grandma all those clothes she could fold so fast and professional. Rice pudding. Just hanging out outside (too cold inside felt like Buffalo, NY) talking while she would crochet.
You will be forever missed!

Debbie and family so sorry for your loss. May you RIP
my thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
What a wonderful life Ruth had you will be missed. Fly high with all the angels
RIP Grandma. I’ll always remember you. ❤️
Mom I am blessed to be with you Friday night as we watched the home movies, talked, prayed and listen to Diana and Thomas singing. You kept calling Lester, Lester, Lester is in trouble he is going to get popped. Then at 1:00 am you lifted your arms and said twice “is it freedom to go.” I didn’t want to leave but had to sleep. God nidged me the next morning and I went to church. I left and hurried to be with you and as I went in you were resting. I washed your face and brushes your hair, held your hand, kissed your cheek and told you I love you. 15 minutes later at 8:26 you breathed your last. I looked up and said see you later mom we love you. I will miss the stories but will share them all. You never complained. Always put others first. You said your peace to anyone and let it be. Your faith was who you were! We love you
RIP Aunt Ruth the Lord is going to get a wonderful Angel and Godmother
Sam,
I am very sorry for your loss. My condolences to you and your family during this time.
So sorry to hear of the death of your loved one. Psalm 116:15 comforts us in knowing our loved ones are precious in God’s eyes and he longs to resurrect them (John 5:28,29). May these verses comfort you during this difficult time.
Sam,
Sorry for your loss, but Heaven’s gain of another Angel. Matthew 5:4 says, Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Stay strong in the Lord my brother and he will give you perfect peace. My prayers will continue to be with you and your family.
Thank you for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers Yes The Beatitudes was one of the readings at mom’s mass. Father Leo Clifford, I believe said “We all belong to God and it is only right as a Christian to give back to God what belongs to God. The joy mom brought to everyone’s lives and allowing us to have her the last 7 years was His grace. Peace be with your family also. Michael and Janet Sampson
Ruth you were always fun to be around with your beautiful smile and your funny laugh I am thankful for knowing you and you left a lasting impression on everyone you met God Bless All
Gracie was for her mainly. Gracie who one day when we were gone Mom left her yarn in her bag and Gracie ran all through the house with the yarn. It took mom forever to get it in a ball without knots.
