Ed, my heart hurts for you, Ruth was such a special person all those years ago when I knew the two of you. Such sweet memories! I lost my Jerry 19 years ago, you will never get over the hurt but you will learn to live with it. God bless you! Melody Fortner

Such a lovely lady! I am so sorry to learn of her passing.

What a gracious obituary for such a gracious lady.  Please know you're all in our thoughts and prayers.  Ruth will be so missed by many.  Love, Edie Light

Beautiful, Beautiful, Ruth. What a great example she sets, to be followed. I know she's so proud of Finley and Cam for the sweet job they did in her service today.  So proud of all of her young one, she is now with them in a different way, every day, remember, you are forever connected. xo Wendy Cicio and family

Ruth had another name, it was "follow-up"! Once she learned of a senior in jeopardy she was on the case.  Checking with the student, teachers, and home until she was assured this senior was going to be there in line with cap and gown, and Ruth's smile was as big as the parent's! So many can smile with the memories of this fine Christian lady.

Ed, our hearts are broken!  Ruth was such a totally beautiful lady and friend.  She exhibited her strong Faith in every moment of life and was a tremendous inspiration to all her knew and loved her.  She already is truly missed!
May God wrap his loving arms around you and the family and give you comfort, forever.

Very sorry to hear this.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.

You must know how deeply saddened I was over your loss. Ruth Robertson was one of my  dearest friends and she has always been a special person to my entire family. My daughters, Neko and TiaLeigh thought a lot of her.  She has touched us in such an amazing way with her.love. We will miss her very much.

I could always rely on her whenever I needed help, whether with a my daughter Neko (who has passed away) that she was always so willing to help me with. I came to trust her judgment and wisdom as well and her advice was always so well thought out and helpful. 

She was truly a great woman of God and I know our lives will never be the same without her. I could never find a better and more caring friend.

She has left us with so many wonderful memories. I will cherish them forever.

In Deep Sorrow,

May you find strength in the The love of family and in the warm embrace of friends.

We will miss Ruth!  Blessings and peace to you and the family today!

You must know how deeply saddened I was over your loss. Ruth was one of my dearest friends and I dare say she was like a very special person to me. My daughters'  Neko and TiaLeigh thought the world of her. We  will miss her very much.

In Deep Sorrow,

I'm heartbroken over Ruth's passing.  She was a gentle, bright light to so many young people.  I look forward to gathering with so many who love her to join in celebrating her life tomorrow.

To Ed, Renee, Cam and family:  I do not have the words to tell you how much my heart hurts for you. I grieve the overwhelming loss of my friend, but I know it does not compare to your loss of the most wonderful wife, mother, mother-in-law, "Mama Ruth," and sister. As you continue to be in Buster's and my prayers, we know Ruth is in Heaven, for there is where angels reside. With much love, Marilyn

Mrs. Robertson was an amazing woman. She was my guidance counselor at Thomson High School in 2003. She made a huge impact in my life. She believed in all her students and strived to help them succeed. She was a true blessing. Mrs. Robertson will be missed but never forgotten.

Mrs. Robertson you will truly be missed!!!! Such a sweet woman who really just had a love for people. I will never forget you.

Ruth was an inspiration, and it was a privilege to know her. Our sympathy and love are with Ed and the entire family.

Ed and family, I'm so sorry for your loss. My heart breaks for you. Your faith in God will get you through. Ruth was a special person, always giving of herself, definitely a servant to others. My prayers are with you all.

Mrs Robertson  was  a very special  lady in my family's  life. We endured  several tragic  moments with my Father's  battle  with cancer  and  the  loss  of him,  the shock of losing  my nephew  at a young age , and my own battle  with cancer  that is on going.  She  was  always  there  for an encouraging  word,  prayer  or hug.  Peace and  prayers  for this wonderful  family.

Ed, Renee, Cam, and families, our hearts were saddened to receive the news of Ruth's passing.  She was one of the kindest people I have ever known.  What a legacy she leaves behind!  May we all do so well.  Please know that you have been and will continue to be in our thoughts  and prayers. Aren't we grateful for our hope in Glory where we will all be reunited one day?  Much love, Paige Miller Brydon

This sweet lady will be missed dearly! I was fortunate to have her as my councilor at MES and THS, she was an angel! Then later I took care of her at my job, I was so happy she remembered me. Truly heaven sent!!

I have never known a kinder soul than our sweet Ruth. She was made of pure love and goodness, and I don't imagine that there was a single life she touched that was not enriched for the better. We will miss her terribly, but are so grateful to have known and loved her. Sending wishes for peace and comfort to Ruth's beautiful, loving family.

Truly and angel sent from Heaven. You will be missed tremendously! Prayers are with the family.

as a counselor, at MES, she always made my day a bit brighter...and, i knew, and, looked forward to, her "birthday bread" in my box....without fail....ruth was goodness and light...and, still is....her touch on the students and folks of montevalo will last forever....thank you for always e-mailing me on my birthday....much love...

I am so sorry for your loss.  Ruth was a wonderful teacher and friend.  I met her when I was a teacher in Montevallo.  We met again when she was my daughter's friend and counselor at Thompson High.  She served her students and the community well.  We will miss her.

Miss Ruth was a blessing when my father died.  Her and my mothers friendship ran deep. All the things I read in her obituary are not a surprise.  You could sense she was a special lady who served her Lord faithfully.

Ruth Robertson was so very special. She was one of the most significant adults in my life when I was a young person, and I'm certain I would not be the person I am today without her. I still have all the sweet little notes she wrote me when I was in middle school. Much love to Ed, Renee, Cam and their families.

Ruth has been an inspiration to me as a counselor at the Montevallo High School. Not only was she an inspiration in the schools, but also in the community. Always had a concern and smile for the young people. A lost in the Montevallo community that can never be replaced. My prayers are with the Robinson during your bereavement.

Joe, Andy, Beth and I send our love and prayers to Ed, Renee, Cam and families. Ruth's life was living water to all whose lives were touched by her. We know she was greeted by our Savior with out stretched hands as he said "Enter into my Kingdom my good and faithful servant". She was the first person to welcome me into her home for coffee when we moved to Montevallo, and became a dear friend. I have never known a more gentle, gracious, and loving person.  We should all aspire to be just like her. Thanks be to God for her beautiful life!

 My heart is so heavy at the loss of Ruth. She was one of the godliest women  I have ever met. The love of Jesus not only radiated on her face but in the way she  livedj her daily life.  She was such a blessing and inspiriration to me. I cannot express how much she ans Ed have meant to me at University Baptisi Church.  I am so, so sorry.  We have truly lost a saint.

I am so sad to hear of the death of Ruth Robertson, however, my major emotion is one of JOY for having known Ruth.  From the moment I met Ruth I knew she embodied the meaning of her name.  Ruth always displayed love for all people, because Jesus was truly alive in her heart.  She was the definition of FRIEND and COMPANION.  
She and her loving companion Ed were the perfect couple.  God is so good to have allowed so many people to be touched by Ruth and Ed Robertson.  Ruth will be missed but her spirit lives on in so many lives.
May God Bless you ED, Renee, Cam and all your children.

Sending prayers of peace for Ruth's family. She was such a dear friend to me for many years. She was always a source of love and encouragement. She truly was an angel walking on this earth. Fond memories of Ruth include ... seeing her smile each morning as she was the first to greet students and faculty at Mintevallo Elementary, dinner at her house for teams of teachers from Montevallo Elementary, her phone calls, texts, or emails on my birthday( she never missed a one) , her never ending compassion and love. I have been so blessed by Ruth.

Ed, you & Ruth are dear, sweet people, whom I have always admired from a far.  My thoughts & prayers are with you, your, family & friends. The world is a better place because Ruth lived in it.

Oh, I love this lady! She saved my life during tough times when I was young. I know her life impacted many. You will always be in my heart sweet lady!

I am a recipient of Mrs. Robertsons wisdom, grace and compassion. The most kind and sincere person I have ever had the privilege of knowing.  Just being around her made you feel like a better person. We will never know the thousands of lives she impacted because most of her work was without the spotlight or recognition.  I lost my friend and mentor.

Ruth was always kind to me, as she was to all of Dr. Robertson's students. I know she will be greatly missed. I am thinking of Dr. Robertson and his family.

Mrs Robertson will truly be missed she was a great lady I am proud to say she helped me out when I was in school at montevallo elementary

So sad prayers sent to the family she was such a great person at THS truly going to be missed

Mrs Ruth was such a sweet and caring woman.She touched so many young lives  in her career at the school.Sending prayers to her friends and family.RIP Mrs Ruth

We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers.

Mrs Robertson was the first person to welcome me as a new student to Thompson High School. She made me feel welcome and encouraged me to join the marching band. Without her encouragement and guidance I would not have eased into a new school as easily as I did. Mrs Robertson continued to encourage and guide me throughout my high school career and truly made an impact on my life. She will be greatly missed!

Ruth was a wonderful, caring person.  She will be remembered for her contributions to students, and she was so kind to everyone.

Dear precious Mary and David and all of Ruth's family-our hearts are heavy for you right now in the loss of your sisterRuth. May God envelope you in His love and comfort.We will continue with our prayers. Love, Norma and Rudy[FBC Cornelia]

Ruth was such a graceful and caring lady. She always had time to listen and then assist you with making good decisions. Ruth was a blessing beyond measure to our family. Until we meet again Ruth!

It was with great sadness that we learned about the passing of this dear friend. Ruth's family will never know the countless lives she touched and enriched as a school counselor, and this will be part of the legacy she leaves the world. Montevallo has lost one of its most beloved citizens, and we join with the community in lifting up her sweet family in prayer.

I met Ruth and Ed in 2003 when I moved to Montevallo. What a beautiful soul. When I was around her, I wanted to be better, to do better. Thank you for your quiet calming light.

Mrs. Robertson was such a godly woman. She knew my husband and I by name and could tell you the major milestones in our lives. Such a precious and loving soul! She encouraged me to further my education and I loved her sweet smile and warm hugs! Heaven gained a true angel. We will miss you terribly. Thank you for having such a kind heart. We are praying for the family.

Such a sweet lady. You will truly be missed

I remember Mrs Robertson from Montevallo middle. She was a very sweet and caring lady. She will be missed.

I am so grateful to have had Mrs Ruth as my counselor at Thompson High over 10 years ago. I know the Angels are rejoicing in the beautiful homecoming of such a sweet spirit. Thoughts and prayers go out to her family during this time.

Ed and kids, Ruth will be miss but she is in a better place.

We are so saddened to hear of Ruth's passing. She was a gracious lady with a huge heart.  Comfort and blessings to Ed and all the family.
Mark and Melanie Williams

We love and miss Ruth. She was as sweet as anyone could be. Thinking of Ed and your family.

Mrs. Ruth was seriously one of the sweetest people you could ever know. I graduated from Thompson in 2005 and honestly, she was one of the only reasons I was able to graduate. She actually cared!!! She will be so missed and I hope her family knows how HUGE of an impact she had one so many people's lives. I will be praying for the family and friends. This is a true loss but heaven's gain.

A true and gentle lady who will be greatly missed.  - Pat Stewart, UM class of 81

Ruth was a true Christian woman who always showed compassion and understanding for students and fellow teachers. She told me once she loved daisies and I know why, because they are bright and bring promises of spring. The world has lost a great soul but heaven has gained an angel.
Sympathy and prayers from Jerry Ann Harris and Karl Perkins

A real Southern Lady that had a big heart for everyone. Prayers for all the family

Ruth was such a caring , giving person. She will be missed by so many people. I always loved that we shared the same birthday.

Heaven has truly gained a Angel we loved Mrs. Robertson  we call her Mother Teresa of Thompson High School she loved her students and we loved her .....she will be truly missed.

I always remember Ruth as a kind, wonderful soul. Peace to Dr. Ed and all the family.

I remember Ruth from so many years ago as a very gracious and intelligent woman. I am so sorry for your loss, Doctor Robertson.

To an awesome Christian lady. She touched so many lives, including mine.

Rest in heaven Mrs. Robertson. You were a wonderful woman.

Words can never express the genuine goodness and sweetness of our wonderful friend Ruth.  She was loved and respected by all who were lucky enough to know her.  What a great family!

What a loss for family and friends.  Ruth was a very special lady.  We are all better for having her in our lives.
