Sad. Ruthanne was a friend of mine since middle school...She didn't have that many friends, After high school we lost track of Marlene Snyder, We know she got married then lost track of her, she Always helped her parents and her younger sister Cathy, she visited with me and my 3 children often, Her son Ben is the nicest guy in the world, he took care of his Mom always, Ruthanee had a lot of medical problems and ended up after a couple of handicap ap't s, at Westoreland Manor, she was ther for many years, I was out that way for an appointment and something told me to stop in, I haven't seen her in awhile, there, so I did,She had been watching what she ate, she told me, and so proud of her she lost 100lbs!!.Unfortunately it wasn't going to help her walk, She enjoyed seeing my children and couldn't believe my youngest Granddaughter Charlie had a baby, my first GreatGranddaugher!!, I showed my for hours all those new baby podcast,they are so funny and neat..She asked how many classmates had passed away, she wanted a list.I told her I would so that , she passsed away a few weeks later, I didn't get it in time..So I askekd her SonBen..If I could have it with her so I put it in her hands at the viewing, not wierd, it what she asked for, she was a very kind person, althought a group of people at high school who thought they were better than everyone were mean to her, and myself, Marlene, and called us names, these weren't the well known class, they were kind...it's sad that bullying went on it is rememered, for a long time, it causes problems for a long time...

Sad to hear, Nancy and I were good friends in high school, as time went on lost touch, then reconnected, I knew she had epilepsy but it wasn't bad, she still drove, she had lost a son I believe twice but had a daugher Nicki, I met her and spoke to her exhusband about some work, he chose not to do it...lost touch again, I wish I knew sooner I could of gotten in touch, she deserved a better life.
