Ronnie, Larry and Family,



Our hearts and prayers are with you all at this time.



Ruth was a wonderful neighbor and friend. We will surely miss her a lot.



You will never know what a comfort she was to us as we talked about the good times that she and Mama had before Mama died. Ruth helped to keep Mama's memories alive and we will always cherish the wonderful memories we have of Ruth.



We can only imagine the game of Yahtzee that is going on in heaven right now and all the reminicing too.



May God give you all comfort in the days, weeks and years ahead as your broken hearts mend. Ronnie and Larryi, treasure the memories of your Mother - she loved her family so much.



Much love,

Growing up with an Aunt Ruth was a great treat ! Almost all the Robinson cousins can agree with that; we've all enjoyed Aunt Ruth's laughter, her wonderful cooking, and her love throughout our growing-up years. I have so many wonderful memories of her and Uncle Hutch, the old homeplace in Lynchburg, and being a part of a large and loving extended family. I know the love we all learned and experienced in that family will never die---and that Aunt Ruth will always be laughing and smiling with us. I wish I could be with you right now, Ronnie and Larry. Love from Carole.
