Memories. Ruthy and I worked side by side for 17 years we became fast friends. It was so fun to play jokes on her she had great sense of hummer. She loved to cook and feed people, loved music especially The sound of music, so one horrible night at work I went down to the building lobby and called our office knowing she would pick up the phone, I asked to speak with Maria VonTrapp, she replied sorry I don't list that name. Ok may speak with Gretl Von Trapp she says sorry I don't see them listed, how are you spelling it? this went on for a few minutes and then she realized what was going on and she said oh my god is that you mealy? she just laughed and laughed and called me a few names our horrible night was turned into a great memory and her new nick name as Maria was born. Someone once asked me what's Ruthy like? Ruthy in a nutshell would be a tiny, pretty, friendly, hardworking, kind woman, loving mother and wife, carrying a Pot-roast in her Louis Vuitton bag. I told Ruth if we ever get stranded on a mountain, and we are starving eventually you will start looking at me and thinking wow look at her fat meaty leg and start planning a menu we laughed so hard she had tears rolling down her face. She always said you know me Mealy! Thanks, Maria, for your friendship and memories. I love you and miss you so much already
