Ruth seemed like a very special lady although we didn't know her real well. Nanci talk to my husband and I about her very often,always with nice things to say. When our oldest daughter got married Ruth let our family borrow her handicapped van to transport my father-in -law to the wedding. We never forgot her kindness. God bless her and may she rest now in a better place.
Thinking of the Dorau family...I went to school with Jim[in my brother Ron`s class] and Martha[in my sister Betti`s class]. Jim was my brother`s closest friend and a friend of our family as well.
mrs.dorau was a very nice lady had meet her when her granddaughter Shelly lived with her and went to school at bloomfield she was a sweet ladie and a very good story teller she had some interesting stories of some the older times
Ruth always said she knew me before we met. She called me for pies for church. She talked with my husband Bob. he always said he would give me the message which he always did. We developed a close bond when i worked for Betty Davis and helped her some.
One of my fondest memories is when Ruth and Mary Smith arrived on Sept 7 2009 for my birthday to surprise me. it was a wonderful surprise.
We talked about old times.
While she attended my birthday party she got very excited to see and hear about my sons Dragster and how fast it would go.
I love her and will always remember her carrying ways.
I am so sorry to hear about my Aunt Ruth. She was such a strong woman and a real role model for me. I loved her snappy humor and ability years ago to drive me and my sister to lunch lifting her leg with her hand to put on the brake!I will remember always her and hope she is at peace with her family and friends waiting for her.
my best to Martha and Larry and all their families, love to you from my family
Ruth could not have been a more gracious attentive host than the week we spent at her home backed into her driveway in our rv. She just showered us with love. Joining her at a special Sunday church service at the park, we saw the strength of her faith and her church family. What a wonderful legacy she lived and leaves!
