Karren, Jeanette, Sue-Anne & families; Our sincere sympathy in the loss of your dear Mother, my sweet Aunt Ruth. I have so many wonderful memories of family times together with your Mom, and all of us. I also cherish the smaller visits we had together; just your Mom and me, and when your Dad was with us. Your Mother was the most awesome Aunt, great hostess and was always so welcoming and accommodating. I so appreciate the very special, life-long bond that she and my Mom have had as sisters. I can’t say that I ever remember hearing of a time when either one of them said anything, even something small, derogatory about the other! That is truly a rare gift and has been a fine example for all of us. We continue to hold you all in our hearts, thoughts and prayers, as we all go through the morning process with you; especially with the limitations of this pandemic, separating people when they should be together. Even though another link in our family chain has been broken, “we gotta stick together cousins!” We love you all. ❤️ Rest in eternal peace dear Aunt Ruth. ❤️ Mark & Julie, Sarah, Scott & Spencer.
To Karren, Jeanette, Sue-Anne, Marilyn, and families, our sympathy. May your happy memories sustain you at this sad time. Sincerely, Robert and Alma Westlake.
