My other mom - You were small and humble but made an impact on the lives of many. I loved all of our conversations through the many years. You always had time to talk, even if it was a quick hello before you handed the phone to Beth. Thanks for watching out for Debbie and I, and the rest of Beth's friends, through the years.

Much Love,

Ruth
