Sorry for your loss, I will always remember Ruthie for the time we all work so hard to raise money for muscular dystrophy at McDonald’s in Orange. We all went to Ruthies grandmothers house and sewed things to be sold. Then we had a tent in the McDonald’s parking lot. I remember her daughter was just a toddler we all had fun running after her. Sweetly remembered Sue Will

Jacelyn, Adam, Abby and The Anderson Family,
I am so very sorry to hear of Ruthie passing away. We had so many great memories and I always loved her and her family. I can remember going to their house and the kids were fighting and the look she always had and I can still see it now was her big eyes roll and she would put her hands on her face. I was at her house one day and she made pepper jack cheese nachos with refried beans and I still eat them today. Every time I make them I remember Ruthie. I am very shocked to know that she is no longer here, but she touched and loved so many and especially her children and family. I will miss her but I will always hold her dear to my heart.
