I was so sad to hear of Ruth's passing. She was a very special lady and both my late husband and I enjoyed working with her. She has been down a long and sad path, but she is with God now and no longer in pain. My sympathies to her children Tony and Tammy.

Heart felt condolences to Ruthies family. You were the apple of her eyes, and she loved and adored you all. We were study buddies in nursing school and she and Lisa finally won me over to come work with them at KBH. SHE WAS VERY persistent and even though it took me years to come, she never gave up on me ! We had many many laughs and a few tears shared over the years but I find comfort in the promises of our Lord and Savior, as I know she did as well. Until we are reunited again in glory land ..... prayers of strength and comfort to her loving family.

Please accept my heartfelt sympathy; I am so sorry for your loss. May the God who "binds up the "broken-hearted and "comforts all who mourn" sustain your family during this challenging time. (Isaiah 61:1,2)
