Carol Bell and I shared an apartment with Ruth in college. Carol and I were also bridemaids at Ruth's first wedding which was held on a very hot day at the Arizona Inn.
Ruth was a lot of fun and had a lovely singing voice!

Ruthie and I were childhood friends -- she was always the well behaved one, which was brought to my attention more than once. Our mothers were great friends and in clubs together. I remember that Ruthie's family had the coolest mini house in the back of their regular house, and it was a thrill to play there. She was her own person.
