RUTH FELT THAT AS A SUCCESS IN HER LIFE, SHE HELPED MAKE MANY PEOPLE HAPPY WITH HER WORK FOR FLORIDA HEALTH AND MADE MANY FRIENDS. RUTH FELT THAT HER MOTHER, AUNT RUTH, AND GRANDMA MILLER (BOMMA) WERE BIG INFLUENCES IN HER LIFE.

WHEN ASKED ABOUT A STORY ABOUT WISDOM TO PASS DOWN, SHE REPLIED, " I MOSTLY REMEMBER MOM FOR HOW MUCH PATIENCE SHE HAD - SHE NEVER LOST HER TEMPER & WITH 6 KIDS THAT PROBABLY WASN’T EASY. SHE HAD A HARD LIFE BUT NEVER, NEVER, COMPLAINED. NOW THAT I AM OLDER I NOW CAN SEE WHAT A SAINT SHE WAS (I DO NOT TAKE OFTER HER AT ALL - COULD NEVER BE THAT WONDERFUL) GUESS I TAKE AFTER AUNT RUTH WHO WAS LIKE A 2ND MOTHER TO US AND I CAN STILL SEE GRANDMA MILLER (BOMMA) SITTING AT THE SIDE WINDOW SEWING. SHE WAS ALLWAYS THERE WHEN I WALKED IN RONKS ROAD FROM THE BUS AND WOULD WAVE. I DON’T KNOW IF WE KNEW THEN HOW LUCKY WE WERE TO HAVE ALL 3 BUT I DO NOW. SUMMERS WE VERY SELDOM MISSED AN EVENING SITTING OUT IN THE YARD ALL VISITING - FAMILIES ARE SO SCATTERED NOW WE DON’T REALLY HAVE THOSE CLOSE TIES.
