"Ruth was a very nice Lady, I knew her for a short time but saw her as a quiet polite lady, I don't visit bars very often but on special occasions I would visit beer:30 and Ruth would always smile and get on her phone and tell certain people " Roger is here" that would make me smile, relatively lately I did ask her how she was doing and she just answered "OK", I liked Ruthie and looked for her when I would go into Beer:30, I am saddened and will truly will miss this sweet little lady."
