Our prayers for the loss of Ruth. She was always smiling whenever we saw her.
Bob & Ruth were good neighbors.
What I remember most of all was her smile, her kindness and caring nature. She left an impression me and my children. She will not be forgotten.
I remember working with Ruth and Bob in their gift shop on Peck St. I was hired for the Christmas season. I have fond memories. Ruth was a very sweet person and I enjoyed talking to her. Such a wonderful person will surely be missed.

So sorry for your loss. Ruth was a wonderful person, who always had a smile on her face. She had so many talents that she shared with everyone. I remember when she was our teen Sunday school teacher and the great box of goodies we all received for Christmas. Now she is in heaven with my mom and many more ladies from church.
We will keep you in our prayers, Bob. You gave your very best to Ruth. (We have many treasures from your floral shops ... and always enjoyed times spent with both of you there).
With love,
Sam and Karen Meyers
I am truly sorry for your loss and I hate that I did not get to meet Ruth. She had to be a good woman, because she raised a good man. I met Tim and Kathleen through my husband, Kevin. We have been friends for years now and I cherish that friendship. Please let me know if there is anything that we can do to help. Love you guys!
My name is Rodney Atkins. I currently live in Seattle WA. I went to school with Ruth starting in Moon School and all the way through High School. I remember her as a happy girl who had a ready smile and delightful laugh, and I remember walking over to the family bakery for treats. I'm sorry to hear of her passing, and offer my condolences to her family. I lived on 5th Street, a block south of Laketon until '56.
