Our thoughts are with you.

Our deepest sympathy for the passing of Ruth.
we did not know her well but came to love her as a roommate and friend while she was in conestoga view. She was a very pleasant person and we enjoyed her company on sundays at lunch with my mother and us.

Bob and Barry I worked with your Mother at Educators.  She was the face of our cafeteria at Rockvale and took care of us like her children.  My sympathies to you on the loss of your Mom.
