I'm so sorry I knew nothing of Aunt Ruth's passing until today! Please know that she meant a lot to me as she was the one who sat with me on the front pew after I had walked all the way from the back of the church to accept Christ at the age of 12... I have fond memories of our times while she was still living at home with Grandma Spradley on Edgewood Drive! May God bless all of you she has left behind and we will look forward to seeing her in heaven someday!

Aunt Ruth was a very humble and dear person. We will always remember how
much she enjoyed the pontoon boat rides on Badin Lake. Such a kind and
gentle person must surely be enjoying her heavenly rewards now. I am certain that God was with her in this life and has welcomed her to her eternal
home with open arms.
