Linda Jackson wrote a sympathy message

“I was very sorry to hear of Ruth Ann's passing. I was a former neighbor of hers on Weaver Rd. in Strasburg, PA. She was my 6 month old daughter's first babysitter in September 1978. I had a high school reunion to attend and had not left my baby with anyone since her birth. Ruth Ann volunteered and I accepted. Ruth Ann also helped me set up my first vegetable garden. When my daughter fell off of her bike on Weaver Rd., Ruth Ann carried her up to our house. She will be missed by many..”
