"Today, I want to speak from the deepest part of my heart about someone whose presence shaped my life in ways words can barely capture my beloved sister, Ruth. Ruth was more than a sister; she was a confidant, a safe place, a protector, and a quiet strength in every storm. Her laughter had a way of softening the hardest moments, and her kindness wasn’t something she performed it was who she was to her core."

"She carried love with so much grace, gave without hesitation, and taught me what it means to show up for those you care about. There are memories of her that live with me like warm light moments of comfort, jokes we shared, silent understandings, and the way she believed in me even when I doubted myself. Losing her left a space that no one else can ever fill, but loving her left an imprint that can never fade."

"I honor her in the way I live, in the strength I gather, and in every step forward I take. Ruth, your name is stitched into my story forever, and I will continue to celebrate you in everything I become. You are loved beyond words, remembered beyond time, and missed beyond measure. Today also marks a beautiful milestone Ruth’s first child turns 6!"
