Dear Vicky and Tom, I have had the blessing of meeting your Aunt Ruth at some our Blackhills gatherings. A wonderful sister in Christ and I know how much you loved her and will miss her. I will not be able to make her memorial service but wanted you to know you are in my heart and prayers. Sibyl

I am sure no one will know who I am but I am the niece of Eleanor and Norman Cannon. I knew Ruth as a little girl when I would visit my Grandma Cannon who lived in Wyoming MI. My aunt Eleanor would bring Ruth with her up to the UP. She was a dear & close friend to Eleanor. They were both devout prayer warriors for their church. I have many fond memories of Ruth and know that she is heaven with the Lord and reunited with Eleanor & Norman once again. My deepest condolences to the family.
