LMS Angel - Barbara "Bobbie" Ruetsch

Picture
She was born January 13th,1959 and died peacefully on September 24th, 2010. Bobbie was diagnosed with LMS in 2009. She had a tumor in her abdomen and underwent surgery and chemotherapy. The tumors returned in 2010. We decided to go on one last family vacation in September 2010. When we returned she was told that there was nothing else that they could do for her and she died peacefully a week later. Even though she was facing the end of her life she tried to comfort everyone else by saying "don't worry we will get through this" and saying that at least she got a year longer than she would of had if she didn't get treatment. She was a daughter, a wife of 30+ years, a mother of two, a grandmother, mother-in-law, sister, aunt and friend. She is truly missed by all who loved her.
