Ruth could light up any room with her hilarious stories, contagious laugh and constant singing of old hymns. She loved others unconditionally and showed that through her giving heart. She gave in so many ways through positive advice, savory meals, cakes, gifts and hugs. Ruth always put others before herself. Life without Mam-ma will not be the same, but her legacy will live on through her family.
