  5. Memories of a NieceAs a child I would always look forward to summer vacation when Aunt Ruthie and her family would come to visit from Florida. I always admire Aunt Ruthie that she always corrected anyone who would call her a housewife and tell them that she was a homemaker; and she was one of the best. She would always make everyone feel welcome whenever I would visit her. I will miss her but I will never forget her

  6. Thinking of you at this time of loss. With my deepest sympathies. Kathy Johnston, Social Services, GSMC-Linden
