Our family wishes the entire Barranco family our warmest sympathy, thoughts and prayers at the passing of Aunt Ruth. We were unable to be there for the services today but are thinking of all of you. I remember the years we lived down the street on 118th and Aunt Ruth was always there with a smile! As requested, we are providing a memorial in Aunt Ruth's name to the Adventist Community Service Center. Paul R. Rosewitz
