Condolences

My parents (Helen and Glenn Ricks) were stationed with your parents in Germany and at Fort Lee in the fifties and sixties. They always seemed to have a good time whenever they got together, I was young and remember very little but I do recall the largest poodle I had ever seen up to that time. My mom is still alive and she remembers seeing your mom often when she worked at Thalhimers and Sears.

Sorry to hear of your lost. I remember Ruth from working with her at Thalhimers years ago. I left the Petersburg area when our jobs moved us. I get the newspaper online. My you cherish your fond memories of your mother as the years go by.
