Today would have been my Grandma Ruffings 96th birthday. We were blessed to have her for so many years. I would like to tell you a little about Her. My Grandma raised 10 children from the age of 44 alone. The Children were Mary Alice, Barb, Maureen, Paul, Jane and Joan(identical twins), Margaret, Bill, Helen, and an infant that died at 2 weeks Bobby. She enjoyed spending time with her children and grandchildren. Speaking of grandchildren she had a boat load. There is, Deb, Renee, Mike, Cindy, Johnny, Bonnie, Patty, Rhonda, Kenny, Valerie, Cheryl, Eddie, Billy, Paul, Greg, Jill, Tom, Tracy, Jeff, Daniel, Amy, Mary, and Bobby, and Phil that passed away in infancy. She also has 36 great-grandchildren and 2 great-great grandchildren. I believe that when grandmas time came She was ready to be with the love of Her life once more. I miss my Grandma especially today, Her 96th birthday. I will always have my memories of Her, though. They are good memories, camping out in Her back yard with the whole family, Christmas, Easter, and other times. I just had to tell everyone about the wonderful woman that I called Grandma. In Memory Of Mary L. Ruffing.
