Step into the world of Ruthie—Grandma Ruth, Aunt Ruthie, or simply Ruth—whose home always felt like a family reunion. Her story is one of unity, resilience, and joy. If you never had the chance to meet her, this is your invitation to know the woman who held her family close and left a legacy of love that still draws us together.
