Ruthie was loved by all of us at Lincoln school. She was everyone's gramma. She was unconditional love. The children loved her and she them. Even the ones who I could be a handful for others - somehow knew she wouldn't put up with " their nonsense". I am so glad we had the opportunity to have been able to spend work days with her - lunch duty and celebrations outside of work. I wish all kids could have had a gramma like her - I can't help but smile when I think of her. We should all Strive to be the person she was. Rest In Peace Ruthie. You have earned your place in heaven a million times over
