We had many, many conversation over the years from politics to the nature of relationships. Ruth was a brilliant and outspoken woman. I greatly enjoyed my conversations with her. I shared many of her viewpoints and we had lots of great laughs over the years. I will miss her so much. My love and condolences to her family. Sincerely, Pam NH State Library
