Becky, I’m so sorry to learn about your mom’s passing. She sounds likes she was a wonderful woman and you were all truly blessed. May precious memories of her forever give you and your family peace. You’re all in my thoughts and prayers.Love, Kelli Rogers
I had her for English my Sophmore year, enjoyed her stories and quick wit. She was more like a friend than a teacher. Great lady. Class of 88.
With a sad, but thankful heart, I send my love to the family of this great lady. It was an honor and I am forever in your debt for letting me get to be a part of her life. She was kind beyond understanding and welcoming like no other. My heart hurts for you in this time. Let the gifts she gave you be your strength at this time. My love and sympathy are pouring your way.
I am so sorry for your loss. I didn’t have the honor of knowing your mother but I am sure she was a wonderful person if she was anything like you (Sharie) and from what I hear the rest of your family as well. I have been and will continue praying for peace and comfort for your family. May God Bless you all.
I met Ruth when I joined the ANSA book club just over five years ago. I grew to like her very much. She was a funny, intelligent, insightful friend. We will miss her.
