I was extremely saddened to hear the news of Ruth's passing. We certainly would have attended the funeral had we known. I have nothing but fond memories of Ruth. I loved her more than anyone can understand. She was a wonderful grandmother and mother in law. On behalf of the King family, I wish to extend our sincere and heartfelt condolences to the Sowell and Hammer families. May the Lord comfort you during this difficult time. We love you all.

How I loved to visit Aunt Ruth and Uncle Cliff and the my favorite boy cousins. I am so sorry for your loss, my prayers are with all of you during this difficult. Think of all of you with fond memories. Love, Anne
My fondest memories with Ruth are to numerous to mention -but she was an earthly shining star & now a heavenly brite star.Michael,Jeffery,Wayne & Kaye may U find peace knowing she is at rest in her final resting place --Love to each of You--Aunt Barbara
A lovely lady who will be very much missed. The moment we met her we felt like long-time friends - she had that way about her.
I was so happy when Dad and Ruth decided to mix it up. Dad was so lonely, and Ruth lifted him from his funk. She certainly knew how to treat him right, and for that I will always be grateful!
I remember Ruth well when her house backed up to the Hammer's on Mercury Drive Drive in Houston. She must have thought those Hammer kids were numerous and wild childs; little did she know then that she would join the Hammer family some years in the future. I remember playing hide and seek in her front yard back in the mid 70s. T have always respected Ruth for the way that she immediately fit right into the the Hammer clan. I got to meet Ruth's elder son that graduated with Nancy from Furr High School in 1971. Nancy introduced me to him at the Furr HS 10 year reunion. Ruth had very interesting stories about her work I believe near Channelview. She had incredible organization skills, and a sharp memory that never forgot the details. She was truly the quinessential mother of the 50, 60 and 70 when the role of the woman, wife and mother was changing and Ruth was right there changing with it. But to me she will always live on in the lives of the children she raised and the many many people she touched by her kind heart. Regards, Jim Sherrard
Regina, Daniela, Angela and myself have fond memories of Ruth both visiting her and Dad in Houston as well as the times they came to Florida. She was in our lives during difficult times for us and helped to make things better. She will surely be missed. Our condolences to Ruth's family. Ruth can now rest in peace.
My condolences to her family.
