Mrs. Graham had to have been one of those special individuals graced by God. It was her destiny to stand beside her husband as without her strength of character, he may not have been able to reach out to so many as he did. Her support was essential to his success of spreading the Gospel of Christ. What a blessing Mr. Graham must feel in his heart for having had her as his beloved partner in life and now to have her waiting for him in the next.

Ruth is with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, enjoying the fruits of her labors. She is rejoicing with the Heavenly hosts, singing praises to God along with His Heavenly choir. She has been greeted by those who have gone before her, who have died in the Lord-- those who, like her, have put their faith in trust in their living, loving Saviour Jesus Christ! You have been a good and faithful servant, Ruth. Wecome Home. Enjoy your reward!!!
