Gordon, Rhonda and family,
Ruth was such a sweetie and a little fiesty! When I worked for Farm Bureau I would set appointments with her and make sure that I gave myself an extra hour so we could visit. She always had great stories and she loved her family. She will be truely missed. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
