I worked with Ruth all during the 1970s and early 1980s. She always knew the right thing to say or do.

I worked in a lot of banks on conversions with Whisnant, and she was a through and knowledgable employee. I truly loved her, and so did my wife, Betty. Travelled many years with her at work, and she never seemed to tire. Always impressed me with her dedication to the company and peers. She will be greatly missed by a lot of people !
