Condolence: Johnnie, we are so sorry for your loss. Ruthie was an amazing woman who let her light shine to everyone who came in contact with her. We loved her and love you. May God comfort you as only He can.

Condolence: Johnnie: What a wonderful person Ruthie was. She cared so much for others. She loved the Lord and you and people and the Bible-teaching churches (especially Grace Brethren) and Urban Hope and more. What a wonderful example of a godly woman. I just want you to know that we have been praying for you. I know how close the two of you were in ministry and life. She makes Heaven so much richer. She is now with the Lord that she served all her life! Thinking of you and the family at this time and you are in our prayers to receive His comfort!

Condolence: Johnny: How sad I was to learn of Ruthie's passing and yet celebrating that she is with her Lord and Savior who she served so faithfully for many years. My memories of you both go back many years through my parents, Bill and Paula Lawson, as well as my grandparents Onas & Elsie Lawson (we all were part of North Long Beach Brethren Church). We know Ruthie will be missed by all of you but what a great hope you have in knowing you will see her again. Our love and prayers to you and the family.

Condolence: Johnnie and family, how we wish we could be there to love and hug and weep with you at the loss of our dear Ruthie. It is for us we grieve, as we know Ruthie is enjoying the face-to-face with her Savior 'round the "banqueting table". You all will be near in heart and prayers 'though the miles separate us presently. You are loved.

Condolence: I'm sorry for your loss. May you draw comfort from the Creator's promise that death will be done away with.(Revelation 21:4) and the hope of seeing our loved ones again.(John 5:25, 28, 28)

Condolence: Dear Johnnie, Erin, Eldred, Kelly, and the rest of the family. I can't express how sad I am, and how much your family has meant to us for so many years. Tom and I really enjoyed it when you, Johnnie, and Ruthie came to visit us in Indiana. I will always remember your little house in Seal Beach, and the fudge Ruthie made Sunday nights after church. (Do you think they'll have fudge in Heaven?) I am praying often for all of you. Much, much love, Gracia

Condolence: So sorry for your loss. Mrs Ruthie was a very special lady. She will be missed. We sat at the same table on Wednesday night. Talked and shared prayer service. Have been praying for the family.
