This was a great way to celebrate her life. I'm really glad I attended.

02:21:54
I was Ruths first grandchild. We had a special bond and I was blessed to have her in my life .My favorite thing about Nanny was her sense of humor. When we would get together for holidays at Grandmas and Grandpas house it never failed that Nanny and Uncle Bob would be the entertainment. One of their favorite things to do for all of us kids was to take their dentures out. and make funny faces at us. It made us laugh every time.

02:22:30
Thank you so much for putting together this celebration of Ruth's life.

We enjoyed coming out to California and having a ball with Ruth and when she came to Atlanta - she was a gracious host and had a terrific sense of humor - I will miss her greatly.

Dianne and I are honored to have been included in this touching remembrance for Ruth. We met her through Linnea Lodge in Petaluma. We will never forget her welcoming nature and kindness. We never saw Ruth without a smile on her face. She had a way of livening up any room she entered. She is an inspiration and will be greatly missed.
