Sad to hear of your passing, Aunty Ruth.
Thank you for the fond memories of the time I had with you and the family when mum and dad moved to Blenheim. Will miss the birthday messages and catching up with you when Raewyn and I were in Invercargill.

Hello everybody, I am the grandson Zion Henry, so this is for my grandmother Ruth. Yes, I do love Ruth, for as a grandma to one of my high school college mans’ best friends from at Verdon College High School. And I was treated as a next new grandson, and that is how I got to be part of the family. And I have gotten to know about when I first met her while she was alive still, and she was lovely and gorgeous as a beautiful lady. And she was my mans’ best friend. And we all do miss her. And she is a superhero in heaven, by resting peace from God the Father and Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen. And thank you for letting me share the end.

One of my best friends, one of the first person I told when anything was going on and someone I loved with my entire heart.. you loved everything about us nothing was ever two much for you not even a tattoo at 16 phased you! At 89 you even attended our wedding something so new in your world and something that showed just the love you had for us. You filled my world with love and took everything Laura and I told you in your stride you were so excited for you're future great grand child we will always make sure they know everything about you. I know you will be up there with grandad watching and laughing and rolling your eyes at me when you want to tell me to “bag up” I will love you forever grandma “ruthless”

I feel lucky to have been able to call you Grandma. Although my own grandparents had left the earth years before you did Ruth, you helped to fill a huge hole in my heart. The love of a grandparent is like no other, thank you for loving me too. ❤️
Laura

RIP Grandma Ruth. Such a monarch of the family. You are so loved.
