Adults can learn many lessons from children. An 11-year-old angel who endured more than most her age blessed Ruth Ann with her presence before her passing. Although the events of the meeting would break the strongest of hearts, pictures showing the angel smiling and laughing allow the family to take comfort in knowing she was always thankful and happy. The bond Ruth Ann created with the family during a tearful goodbye made a lasting impression still months later. Thank you, Ruth Ann Jewell, for going above and beyond in your care and making a positive impact in a family's life during a negative time!
