    I remember meeting you when I was just a little girl. I always looked forward to sitting by you in church for two reasons: first, I knew I was going to play in make-up and second, we’d have some great laughs. You were always so fun, kind, and full of life. I admired the way you embraced life with such joy. And you were the epitome of a fun , loving and nurturing mother. While I’m heartbroken by what feels like an untimely departure, I find comfort knowing that you’re now experiencing a happiness greater than ever before. Love you, Rootie. Until we meet again ❤️

    The the Hardermqn Family, I am deeply saddened the passing of Ruthie. When I received this news, I was shocked, in complete disbelief, and was crushed. Ruthie was an amazing person, to everyone that knew her know she had nothing words of encouragement, respect, and heart to share with you. I am going to missed her contagious laughter she had when we used to work together, and her amazing smile. As a former Starwood employee I can honestly say that we all at a lost, and we all are feeling sad. To the family I pray that you find strength and peace in this difficult time as you are dealing with the lost of a wonderful human being. May God continue to bless you as you say goodbye to Ruthie.
