Aunt Ruth you will be missed very much..I am sorry i didn’t come to see you more..I love you very much, always have and always will…My thoughts and prayers are with you Penny..Your mom was the greatest.
Aunt Ruth, you were always loved and will be missed. I wish I had visited you more after my mother, Catherine, passed. Thank you for being such a wonderful aunt to me. You gave me many, many happy childhood memories of my visits to your house. Penny, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Your mother will live on in your heart and you will never stop missing her, I am sorry to say, for there is no other love like a mother’s love…it is irreplacable.
Love Always,
Susie
Ms. Humphrey was always so generous and nice to me the short period of time that I took care of her at Glasgow Health and Rehabilitation Center. I could always come in her room and chat with her, she loved to talk about her daughter and grandson. Even though in the beginning she would correct me on the pronunciation of her name she was a cheerful woman. My prayers will be with the family and if there is anything that I can do please just let me know
