To the Family of Ruthie Hansbrough; Hello, my name is Deb Greene and I would very closely with your Mom when she was at Harrisonburg Health and Rehab. I am the phlebotomist that drew blood from her. I got very close to her and loved her dearly. I was so sorry to hear that she had passed. I didn't find out for almost a week. I just wanted you to know that I feel that she was a really great women and wish I could have known her before she became ill. God bless you all. Deb Greene 2008-06-02 11:02:13

Patty and Family, We were so saddened to hear about your Mom. I just saw her in March and she said something that made me laugh. We know you're going to miss her terribly. It will be the little things that you will remember, the quiet moments, the smiles, the laughter. And although it may seem hard right now, and we know it is, it will be the memories of these little things that help to push away the pain and bring the smiles back again.
