This morning Auntie Ru passed. We will miss her and our trips to Bear Hill Nursing Home to visit her. While Shane and Jackson are very young and may not remember her, they brought such joy to Auntie Ru. We tried to go visit every Sunday and bring snowball visit in the library with the birds and have a wonderful day.
One of Auntie's favorite poems:
An Irish Blessing
May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
May the rains fall soft upon your fields,
And, until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of His Hand.
~A St. Patrick Blessing
Long before the boys were born Mommy and Daddy visited A. Ru on larch lane all of the time to eat supper in her pink kitchen and of course to play scrabble. The list goes on and on of how Auntie Ru impacted our lives, she was a very special lady to all of us and we will miss her dearly!
I wrote your name in the sand
but the ocean washed it away
I wrote your name in the sky
but the clouds blew it away
So I wrote your name in my heart
So I wrote your name in my heart
and thats where it shall stay.
