"I will miss Ruth.I loved taking care of her. She was such a precious Lady to me. I loved it when she was baking something and she always wanted to share it with me and always loved watching her make her beads. She would sit for hrs to make those beads for anyone who had a birthday and when a new person started to work there at the Lodge. Most of all I will miss seeing all of her beautiful quilts she had on her bed for different seasons and such.She was so proud of her work. Ruth will be missed alot. All of you are in my prayers.
