“(cont'd) Ruthanna was a great hostess, a rare thing nowadays, always prepared wonderful meals, served on pretty tableware. Everything in her home was beautiful, tasteful, peaceful. She was a real lady, with old fashioned good manners and integrity in her actions. I always felt welcomed and more than that, cared for, in her presence. I sure will miss Ruthanna and will keep her, you Jane, and your family members in my prayers. Godspeed Ruthanna, I’m sure you’re making Heaven dance a jig and sing!”

Sharon Kellar wrote a sympathy message

“Dear Jane and family, I am so sorry and shocked to hear of Ruthanna’s passing. I got to know Ruthanna through our “Celtic At Heart” band about 10 years ago, Jane brought her in to help out on keyboards, and she sure made us sound good. She was a wonderful musician who could pick up any tune and play along by ear – not an easy thing to do with a significant hearing loss. I was lucky to spend some nights at her lovely home, after gigs with our band.”
