We love Grandma Ruth.
First memory of her: walking toward the hospital with her when my brother Joe was sick (I was 5).
Favorite dish she makes: tamale pie
Favorite Grandma Ruth object: her sketches from her childhood
Happy memories: Curling her hair one day, trip to Hearst Castle, faithful letters and cards all my life, sorting out boxes of the past, dressing up in heirloom clothing in her living room, working on recipes, special talks about important things.
Favorite decorations in her home: pictures of grandchildren and soft watercolors.
