Ruth's favorite hobbies

Ruth was a spitfire who always had something to say. She would let you have it no matter who you were. It didn't matter to her one way or another. She loved to spend time with her loved ones and would always introduce herself to everyone as Granny Bat. She would then say, "Well I am just as crazy as a bat." She collected owls and stuffed animals as well as loved to watch General Hospital and would talk to you about it all day long.
