To the Family of Ruth Williams, My sympathy goes out to all of you as you grieve for your loved one. May God bless you all.
I know my loss does not compare to the loss Ruth’s family is feeling. I grieve too, I got to know Ruth about 16yrs ago when one of her random acts of kindness was to come to my house with my mother to help me with my dog who had just passed away.Her selfless act is something I will never forget. I have loved her ever since. Her voice, sense of humor and amazing heart will be with me in my memories.
Jeff, Christina, Adreanna and family members, Ruth touched our hearts when we first met her while living at Sutton Place and her memory will remain in our hearts. We prayed so hard for her to stay with us, but it was not to be. There is a whole in our heart now which will take a long time to heal. We love all of you and we wish you well. Love, Julia and Doug
To the Williams Family, I remember Ruth to be a cheerful, wonderful individual. She helped me find a temporary job when I needed one badly. She and your family send a nice contribution to me when my ex-husband died last month and for this I was most grateful. She was always so appreciative when I had roses to give her. Her smile uplifted everyone. She was my mom’s best friend. Linda Dickey

It is with my deepest sorrow that I write this to you. I pray for Ruth and all you. May God bring peace to us and consolation in this time of emptiness knowing that she is now with the Lord and we hope to be reunited with all the ones we so very much love. I remember Ruth for her fortitude and endurance as well as gentle demeanor and uninterested love. God bless, Angelina
Our deepest condolences to Jeff and the William’s family. Billie and I were neighbors and walking friends to Jeff and Ruth for about the last ten years. We learned of each others families during our morning walks and developed a close relationship. Ruth was a loving, sincere person with a heart of gold. She was always an optimist who looked for the best in people and expected everyone to do the right thing, because that was what she would do. Ruth was very special. May God be with Jeff and the family during this time of sorrow.
I still could not believe what happened. Ruth was always my best friend and was on my side.I’ll remember her as the most wonderful woman in the world forever. Jeff and Adereanna, don’t be so sad. Ruth doesn’t want you to be sad. Ruth!!! I love you.
Dear Jeff, Adreanna,Christina and families, we mourn the loss of Ruth very deeply and are thankful for having been able to know and love her. We are with you all in thoughts!! Her spirit is now free to keep in our hearts! love Gisela, Hans, Reinhold, Debbie, Susan, Heidi, Charly and family
I’ve gotten a card from Ruth every holiday since I was about 5. I’m 20 now. She would always send me some spending cash or candy or confetti to go along with the card and I would always look forward to receiving them. She was an amazing friend and a beautiful person and she will be greatly missed. The world has lost a good woman.

My deepest condolences to Jeff, Inge and the Williams family. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Love Anna
Hi, I know I am repeating myself but I was just thinking of dear sweet “Root” as I used to call her in my horrible German. I know how everyone is missing her and her dry humor….that’s why I understood her because I too have a dry sense of humor. I will miss her and will always appreciate how she and Jeff always treated me with love and kindness. Jeff and Ruth will never leave my thoughts and prayers. Love Sal Garcia
To the Williams family: I was deeply saddened to hear about your loss. Having heard Adreana talk about her mother in such devoted and glowing terms throughout the years, I’ve often felt I knew her myself. I hope that the love of your tight-knit family will help ease the pain of this heartbreaking loss. My sincere condolences, Brendan Richardson
