While I was a member of the family, I saw Ruth on quite a few occasions. She was always funny and kind. She was a pleasure to know and be around and I am glad I got the opportunity to meet and know her. My condolences on her passing

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. I have such fond memories of many visits to the house on Pine street and the restaurant on Main when we were young(er) 😊. Your mother was always so sweet. I am praying for your comfort.

I'm glad I had the chance to meet Ruth. she spotted the fire at our place (from lightning) and just matter of factly said you got a fire. She was kind and funny. I pray for all who feel the loss. I pray especially for Billie & Jerry McCleary (my folk's) and Tracey of course. I pray you all can rejoice with fond memories. Blessings.

Glad I had a chance to meet her. She spotted the fire on our land from the lightning and was just so matter of fact and cool about it. 😊 Saved our butts. I pray her family and friends are filled with all the good and happy memories of Ruth.

My condolences to the Thomsen family. I was sad to hear from Jenny that she passed away, My husband Jim thought a lot of her and was one of Jens best friends growing up, He would laugh and his face would light up when he spoke of her, My deepest sympathy to Jens, and family may God be with you as you go thru these next few days and weeks it can be a very confusing time just know that she is with God now smiling down on all of you fly high Ruth R.I.P.
