Condolences

  • My sympathy and condolences to all of Ruth's family. Unfortunately I cannot attend the funeral since I am in Florida. Your Mom was always a special cousin who we saw almost every week as your Mom and Dad came into the store in Alvinston in the 40'3 and 50's. Over the years it has been only at the Worts'reunion where we have very briefly caught up on each other's families. You will miss her. A very Special person. Love to everybody Doug Barber
