Last memories With Ruth

Beside me is Ruth in the green shirt. She loved life! She lost the love of her life many years before her passing. She went on to serve her church, and enjoy her life the best she could. She would come over to my mom’s house about every other week, and we would play cards. She taught my husband how toi play cards. If you ever went to her house to eat you better have not eaten anything. She would want you to eat seconds, and thirds lol.

My mom is peeping over Ruth’s shoulder and my sister is beside my mom, and then there is my husband Ray. She made us laugh that day, by saying the word SEX when someone snapped our picture lol. She normally did not say the word sex during a conversation, so when she said it, it was funny.

Ruth passed a short time after this picture had been taken. Death took her from us all, but the memories we have of her will always make us smile. She seemed fine and looked healthy weeks before this photo, but then she suffered two strokes at one time. She was loved by many people. She made friends easily and then those friends become family to her.

  1. My mom’s name was Ruth and this seems what you wrote would match my mom. We lost her two year’s ago this past April 17. I will always miss her along with my dad and brother, but I know I will see them again someday.

  2. Sorry I am late but I am sorry for your loss my friend. It is never easy but we must hold onto the good memories in our hearts, they are forever memories.
