So many great and funny memories of you that it's hard to pick just one.  You will be missed by so many people who love you.  This photo was taken at one of many of the "Take your Child to Work Days" that we celebrated at LVMPD.

I will miss Mrs. Ruth, I remember when I was younger and growing up, I would come visit her, we would sit on her front steps, and laugh and talk. She always made me feel welcome at her home in the old neighborhood, along with her children, Teresa , Erica, and Jermaine. I thank you for allowing me to get to know such a wonderful person. May you rest in peace, and May God bless your family with Strength and courage to continue on in this world.

I’m really going to miss you.  No one could ever replace you.  You was always there to support me no matter the time or how busy you  may have been.  You was the type of true friend that everyone would like to have.  Good true and faithful friends like you are rare and hard to find.  So glad I got a chance to know you.  I know there will be many times I’m going to need you.  I’ll forever remember and miss you.  Rest In Peace  my friend.  Love you,   Liz , Greenville, MS

I had the pleasure and honor of working with Mz Ruth. I use to tell her “ I want to be like you when I grow up”.   You could always depend on her to be straight forward, honest and fair regardless of who you were, that is a quality that’s hard to find these days.  Thank you Mz Ruth for instilling in me qualities that I continue and will continue to carry with me until we meet again. Rest In Peace Queen,, Regan 🙏🏽💕

To my Loving Family of Ruth, please find comfort in knowing that although, I’m not there with you physically, I am there in Hope, Spirit and Love. No more suffering, no more pain. I Love each of you and you are in my daily prayers. Find Comfort in knowing that Auntie Ruth, is Resting, and is at Peace in the arms of Jesus!! I Love Each of you! 
With Hugs and Love, your Niece, and Cousin, Rita 🙇🏽‍♀️✝️🙏🏽💜💜💜💜💜

Ms. Ruth was one of the first people I met when I began with LVMPD. 
 She was a major influence in my career and life as a young woman.  The knowledge and wisdom she shared will live with me forever.  I am grateful to have known her.  My heart shattered when I learned the news because we were so close; in fact, I was often accused of being her favorite.  She had many similarities as my mom such as the unconditional love for her family, being from the same city and state, smart, witty, candid and sassy.  Through the emotion, I began to reminisce of our outings and talks, and I could hear her infectious laugh, and I began to smile. I love you, Ms. Ruth!  Thank you for making an impact along my journey.  Until we meet again, rest well my Las Vegas Mom.

Prayers for family. Ericka I always loved working with your Mom. The stories she would tell and just the laughs.  I would never know where to begin with the laughs. From her new house stories to the pimp on the yellow scooter. OMG she was always good for her stories. The one day we were laughing so hard and apparently loud - Susana had to come out of her office to see what we were laughing about. When you seen Miss Ruth - you knew it was going to be a good day.  And when Simone and Ruth were together with their stories - you never knew what antics they were up too.  Miss Ruth definitely made an impact on RFB and her legacy will always continue.  May you rest in peace - Miss Ruth.
