Milo,

many many condolences.
like everyone's already said, ruthie's enthusiasm was without equal

Shocked and Dismayed...

Ruthie's influence on the MINI community was huge... She played a big part of getting me involved in the community, and always had a kind word and a smile in any occasion.

Please let me know if there is anything I can do... I'm in south Jersey and not too far away!

Our thoughts and prayers are with you, and know that your mom will be missed...

Hmmmmm

I met Ruthie when we toured Alcatraz together a few months ago. I was instantly struck by what a genuine and nice person she was. She was great company and I'm very sorry I won't get a chance to meet her again as I had hoped. My deepest, sincerest condolences MIlo to you and your family.

There's a lovely thread here that was started a few months ago by Sprydle - it kind of showed how much we all loved Ruthie and can now be used as a great celebration of her life and friendship that she bought to us all

Milo,

Truly sorry to hear the news of your Mother's passing. The world has a little less sparkle when someone as warm hearted and generous passes.


If you can't be good... be good at it!

Although I never met Ruthie, I know her only through her postings on MINI2, I share everyones sadness at her passing. I know reading the posts this morning that she was a much loved person and will be missed by everyone.
