Ruth and Henry enjoyed fishing, camping, going out and enjoying life with friends. Ruth and Henry spent many of there days fishing. She was always getting a bite even when hours earlier she had burnt her line with her cigarette and no one had told her.
There true joy came when their great grand children were born. They spent all their time and energy spoiling there kids, and man did they get away with things we never dreamed of. Ruth lost Henry in 2008 and that's when her life changes. All Ruth wanted was to be back with Henry camping, fishing and drinking beers and telling a whopper of a fishtale sitting by the love of her life.
