Vicki and Brad so sorry for your loss. Aunt Ruth was a happy, kind, and wonderful person. Sorry I didn't see her more often but when we did she always had a smile on her face and a kind word. She lived 96 years and I hope most were great but the last time I saw her she told things were changing but to me she seemed liked the same happy Aunt Ruth.
