Harold and family, sorry to hear of Ruth's passing.We picked ruth and Harold up every Sunday and Wednesday and took them to church at the Rocky Ford Free Methodist here in Columbus, IN. Ruth was such a delight and had a great outlook and sense of humor. May God bless you during this time of sorrow. Charles & Audrey Crase

Many, many remember when moments. We had such good times sitting around their table playing cards, eating, you guessed it, ICE CREAM, going on walks together. My heart misses her but I can picture Ruth playing the piano for a choir of beautiful angel voices praising our Lord. I look forward to the time we meet again. Love you my friend.

My condolences to Bro. Culp and the rest of the family. Bro. & Sis. Culp were so friendly and kind to me @ Columbus Church of the Nazarene when I attended there. They are perfect examples of Jesus. May He comfort all of you at this time of loss.

We were so sorry and sad to hear that Ruth had left us. Even tho we have been separated by miles, we have never forgotten all the good times we had together. I was getting her birthday card ready to mail in a few days and then call and talk with both Ruth and Harold. Our consolation is that we know where Ruth is and that we are going to see her again someday.Our prayers are with the family and Harold, we miss you and love you. With our love and prayers, Tom and Chick

Anita, we taught together at Howard in the 70's. Although I have lived in Ohio for 30 years, I still miss my hometown, and read the Niles paper every day on-line. I was so sorry to read that your mother has passed. It is hard to lose a parent and my prayers are with you and your family. Kathy Bauner Baughman

One of God's special saints has gone home but the memories of her smile, kind words and caring personality remain with us. Our deepest condolences to Harold and all of Ruth's family. The testimony that Ruth and Harold lived will remain with us until we are all united together again. We treasure the times we spent with the "youngest" primer timers that Columbus First ever had. All our love Harold, Dave & Lana

Suzanne, Anita and John, I am so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. Please accept my condolences and those of my mother, Ruby, and Thelma. I know that my mother and Ruth were very close when they were young and she often talks about the days when the family was closer.
