Today, on July 20, 2013, my Great Aunt Ruthann passed away. You might remember the celebration of her 89th birthday on June 7. After her birthday, she became ill and her health deteriorated rapidly. I am posting to let you know since you shared with my family her birthday. She was the last of her generation in the Waldeck-Mulder family–the spouse of the youngest child of Clara and Charles, Charles Jr. Aunt Ruthann was a wonderful lady who was very loved by her close and extended family. She will be missed very much.
