Kim,
You made sure she was comfortable and well cared for during this long illness. No one could have done more or been better for her than what you did. Always know that.

My thjoughts and prayers will always be eith all of you. Doing this time of such a great loss to your family. Ms. Ruth loved you all so much, during our hen parties in the bathroom we would laugh, cry and talk about our lives and kids. Although, I have only known her for some months it was like I had known her all my life. Because that was the type of woman thst she was genuine all the way around. I have to say I LOVE YOU MORE because thats what Ms. Ruth would say. I was honored to have the chance to meet and take care of her. she will be missed in my llife as well. When you think you can't go on turn to the LORD he will give you the strength to carry on!!!! LaChon (Unity Hospice)

John, Kim, Cindy, and Tom,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Your Mom will always hold a special place in our hearts. We will treasure the moments we shared together. She was such a loving person. She always remembered my children on holidays, birthdays, and special occassions. She was funny, oh was she funny~ she was always good for a "good" joke! We will miss her tremendously.
We will continue to keep you in our prayers in the days and weeks ahead. Your Mom's spirit will remain in all of those she touched~

Like your Mom would say......

LOVE YOU MORE!

Debbie, Megan, and Ryan Kwilas

John, Kim, Cindy, and Tom,

My prayers and thoughts are with you all during this difficult time. Your Mom loved you all so very much, she talked of all of you often. Every morning at Mass we would stand around to talk and have many laughs. When your Mom stopped coming to Mass, she would always call and want to know the "scoop". All the laughs we shared, are now memories that I will hold on to. To the very end, your Mom still had her wit, humor, and positive outlook. Words can not express how much she is going to be missed. Her spirit and love will continue on through all of you.
I will forever miss my "pew buddy" at Mass.
Love,
Mary Gentilini
