Ruth was my second mom especially from age 12 after my mom passed away. I remember the day the Lockhart clan picked me up and took me to their home to try and take my mind off of things. Although I live in Las Vegas, over the years I have been fortunate enough to visit from time to time with my own family and enjoy the wisdom that Ruth and Jack would offer. I am heart broken for the Lockhart family and will truly miss the cards, occasional call and visits with Ruth. The Lockhart family treated me as one of their own and never hesitated to help when I needed it. Ruth, Jack, Dane and Dyke were the village I needed while growing up in Chesapeake and I will forever be grateful for all they did for me. Love You Guys...Michael Simmons
