She will be remembered as a loving wife, mother and grandmother and will truly be missed by all.

Dear David,
I just learned of Ruthann’s passing. I am sorry. She loved you so much David. I remember as a classmate at Couch, once she fell in love with you, there was no other one that would ever come into her life. I loved her as a friend and admired her sweet and gentle nature.
Please take care, you are in my thoughts
Sincerely,
Carolyn Deaton Stephens
