Happy birthday, Miss Ruth!

Miss Ruth


Oh, I wanted to share a photo of our amazing neighbor, Ruth Gartrell. “Miss Ruth” is an amazing woman, posessing more energy at 80 than some people half her age. She has such grace!

This weekend she celebrated her 80th with a big birthday party at her home, and we were truly honored to have been invited. She said a few things about us at the party that were so sweet they put a lump in my throat, to be honest, but we’re as happy to have her as a neighbor as she is to have us!

I’ve said that the folks in my neighborhood are some of the friendliest in town, and our Miss Ruth is proof!
