It has been years since I've seen "Aunt Ruth" - but the memories are still very fresh in my mind of all the great times shared with Sue & Ruth. She was always a "favorite Mom" of mine and of all our St.Agatha/Watterson friends from 'back in the day'. Our thoughts and prayers are with your entire family -- we all know Ruth is in a better place now! Condolences & Best Wishes from the entire Coughlin Family.

Dear Chris & Sue,
Your Mom was a great neighbor here on Pickwick Drive; whenever you saw her she always had a big smile and cheery hello. She was a wonderful person to have in the neighborhood and I think I can see where you got your outgoing nature.
We will remember her and her family in our prayers. May God grant you his special care at this stessful time.

Brother Art Ulrich just emailed me Ruthie's notice. My deepest sympathy to all. I have fond memories of Ruthie from Rosary Grade and High School, plus all the years our families knew each other at Harbor Hills. My prayers are with you all.
