    Ms. Ruth has been a constant in my life since 1972. She has never shown me anything but love. I was really a rotten teenager too but always felt like one of the family! Seems as though she always understood. She will be missed terribly. I'm so lucky to have talked with her only last week. Much love to Juanita, Doreen and Valerie.

    Mrs. Brinn, Mrs. Perkins and Mrs. Ramsey sure did keep the Brynn Marr Roses in tip top shape in the 1970's and 80's. These ladies trained many a manager and cashiers.
