We are so sorry we cannot be there but you,Shannon and Kennedy, are in our thoughts and prayers. We will always treasure the wonderful times we’ve spent together over the years. We will see you when we get home.

Dear Shannon, Kennedy and Murray you are in the thoughts of Steve and myself.
I worked with Ruth Anne for many years. She had a work ethic that very few people possessed, she lived by the “Golden Rule” and had a great capacity for fun and laughter.
Ruth Anne was very proud of you Shannon and deeply loved and appreciated the joy of being a grandmother to Kennedy. My own grandaughter is a year older than Kennedy and we always were talking about the two girls.
Again Steve and I are so sorry for your loss.
Joan and Steve Killi

Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise.”
We both know deep within our hearts that this is where Ruth Anne now truly resides. One day we will all meet up again…
Dear Murray:
So very sorry to hear of Ruth Anne’s passing. I know she put up a valiant fight and it seemed that she remained optimistic. My thoughts are with you.
I am in Myrtle Beach right now and heard via e-mail. I know what you are going through and will go through in the months to come. My partner of many years passed away in November. You have to remember all the good times, and I am sure there were many.
All the best and take care.
