A very special lady to me.
Ruth is missed daily, she was an important part in my life, we had so much fun! She will be remembered as an outstanding mother-in-law, mother, grandmother and friend. Love to all of the Lohrs. SEM
There are so many wonderful memories with my “best friend” Ruth. These are just a few: having enough faith in me to give me my first job at Lady Bug in 1975; making a detour very late one night in DC as we returned from a Lady Bug meeting in Pa.; misplacing her car one evening at Fair Oaks Mall and needing the Safety Patrol to find it; attending the 1988 Redskin Superbowl party at her home in Vienna;going to a Willie Nelson concert in MD.; remembering her every year when we use her gifts of Christmas ornaments and Snow Babies. Most of all we will always remember her kindness, generosity, and no nonsense will.
