Michele Price wrote a sympathy message

“I'm so sorry to hear of Ruth's passing. I knew her as a fellow member of St. Paul. It was always delightful to see her warm smile and interact with her bubbly personality. She will be missed. All who loved her will be in my daily prayers, that God will be their source of strength and comfort during this difficult time.”
