    Rusie was a very dear friend of mine when we were growing up and in school. Once, we grew up and married, we didn't see each other very often, but when we did, it was as if we were together alot. Same laughing and carrying on as always. I am very sad for your loss and mine but, God's grace will see us thru. I will remember her always. With love, Gracie
