As I considered which memory to share, I leaned more and more towards thoughts of holiday dinners where Aunt Ruth always sat in the middle of the table…giggling. She got a kick out of the family’s antics and her laughter always spurred us on. Though quiet by nature, her grandchildren and great-grandchildren allowed her to “break out”, too. She raised the roof a time or two, and was very much a part of all the fun. COVID may have taken away our opportunity to continue the family gatherings but it hasn’t stolen our memory of the joy we all shared, when getting together was the norm. ‘Aunt Ruth’ your place at the table will always be set (Carrie); ‘Grams, we’ll miss your smile!’ (Michael, Mac, Mallorie). xo
