Not sure what to say?

I was Ruth's caregiver in 2022 forca short while. We would get sandwiches at Subway and then watch the ducks at the pond in Centennial Park. We would come back and watch game shows; she would scold if I didn't pay attention! It was a fun job because of her. The agency moved me elsewhere; I never got a chance to visit her again as I was so busy. I enjoyed my time with her and am sorry to know that she is gone. I am a member of if Saint George 's as well, and it's so big that if I had not been...

Ruth was a very happy and loving person to all!!! Her joy for life and bridge were both infectious! it was a delight to Be around her and she will leave an emptiness that will be hard to fill! What a pleasure to have shared time with her, to play bridge with her , to be a part of one of her fabulous birthday celebrations at VBS, and to have known her even briefly! May God richly bless all of her loved ones today and always!!! Thank God for her life so richly lived and for the love love...

asked Ruth why she went to some country never heard of. she said, "had never been there", asked her why she jumped out of plane, she said, "if George could, I could too". Told me she loved playing golf with Mother in law. lots of jokes while they played. She was truly special!!! Carolyn Robinson

Ruth and her granddaughter Stacey were on a Danube river cruise with us several years ago and the fun and sparkle they added to the group was not to be measured. Last Thanksgiving Ruth and Stacey were with us and once again Ruth was the hit of the day. So happy to have these memories!

Sorry to hear of her passing. Earl Pond III

Ruth and I were partners for Swiss Teams on her 102nd or 103rd Birthday party. She was still playing a competitive game. I only hope I can age as gracefully as she did. Great memories of a grand lady.

Ms. Ruth was one of those very special people that this world needs more of. Anyone she touched in her lifetime was so fortunate to have had the experience . God bless you, young Lady
