Ruth,
I can’t remember a day at First Trinity when you weren’t there. What a gift you have been to all of us.
I recall one day you were practicing a song with Megan and the music wasn’t written in the right key for her voice. So you simply (simply for you, not for anyone else) shifted your hands on the keyboard and started playing the same song in another key without written music in that key!! My gosh what talent you have!!! Love you Ruth
Megan always enjoyed singing with you

It has been a joy to work with Ruth in the bell choir, regular choir and Vespers choir for many years. She has been an inspiration to everyone who knows her.

Ruth, Not sure what we all have done to deserve your presence amoung us as the leader of our traditional worship, choirs-singing and bells, both adult and childrens, plus our little orchestras! Oh and of course, Vespers for so many, many years. Through your encouragement, we got to hear our Lisa play her flute in your littls orchestra on special occasions.
Thank you for everything. See you on Sunday as we worship our Lord together.

Ruth certainly is sweet and talented. I remember thinking that from my first time meeting her. It was a joy to be in staff meetings with her and to get to see her so often these last 2.5 years!

The Apostle Paul’s words in Eph. 5:19 - 20 characterize well for us the week by week worship guidance of Ruth
at the organ, in front of the choir and the bell choir,
“…be filled with the Spirit, addressing one another in
psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making
melody to the Lord with all your heart, always and for
everything giving thanks in the name of of our Lord Jesus Christ to God the Father.” We thank Ruth for all
her preparation and practice to help us “make melody to
the Lord with all of ours hearts.” Danke schoen!
+ Vielen Dank. by … Carl and Thea Streufert

I sang in Vespers for several years before we joined First Trinity. Sweet and talented Ruth was a huge part of the reason my family became members! I love you Ruth!
