    So very sorry to hear of the passing of this very kind lady. She was my mother in law for many years when I was married to her sob, Billy Joe Burnett. Bill & I share a daughter, Dayna Burnett, who will be delivering Ruth's great grandson, Wesley Turner Ryer, today September 2, 2016 at 11am by c-section here in Montgomery, Alabama. Dayna doesn't know her grandma Ruth has passed away yet & I'm not going to tell her until after Turner is safely delivered. But I know that all the Burnetts will be smiling down as Dayna brings this first grandson into the world. Grand Bill would have loved this! I am so so sorry Grandma Ruth, Grandpa Henry, Uncle Eddie Grand Bill aren't here. Aunt Donna if you read this please contact me. Debbye
