I have known Sis Ruth all of my life & the Sircy family. She love God first & family & was always inviting folks to church where she was a member at Faith Missionary Baptist in Nashville. She always had a prayer on her heart for family and friends to be saved and be a part of her church family. We will continue in prayer that her prayers be answered. Love always. God Bless the family & may they follow the Lord.
