Dear Susan,
 Dan read your mom's obituary and passed it on to me wondering if I might know who she was. I explained how she and you were related to us. We want to extend our sympathy to you in your loss of her. You must feel a little like an orphan now. That is how Dan felt after his dad passed away last June. His mom had died five years before that. He actually felt like he had been orphaned twice since he had been given up at birth and adopted by his folks. Praying for God's comfort to you and your family. Sincerely, Dan and Lonna Ondersma, Megan, Seth and Jesse.

To the family,
 My sympathy is with you all. From the looks of it, Ruth was a grandma to many including myself after she was my special friend through church in Calvinets. My prayers and thoughts are with all of you. Sincerly, Bethany Arnold

Ruth was my "American mom" and held a very special place in my heart and the hearts of my four sons who called her grandma. She was so thoughtful and never forgot any of our birthdays. I learned so much from her all these years.I learned basic American traditions and how to eat and cook American food, but the most important thing of all was her faithfulness to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I will never forget her commitment to reading the Word before meals and her long prayers. They seemed longer as a child and when I was very hungry.We will miss her great big bear hugs and eagerly await the day we can be reunited in heaven!I know that she'll be there behind Jesus waiting for her turn to hug us all!!

For the family, Our deepest sympathy in the loss of your mother and grandmother. Ruth was our family's mentor when we arrived in this country. She helped us learn the american way of life, from how to wear snow pants and boots, to what mashed potatoes were. Ruth helped me, Lisa with my schoolwork when my parents did'nt understand the language. She was my American Mom when she did'nt have to be. We loved her and will miss her always. Sincerely, Lisa and Gary Burt
