I have known Ruth since I moved to Burns Oregon when I was 15, she was in 7th grade and I was a high school student we met at Burns Christian Church where we became best friends, we went to youth group together at our pastors house had fun times shooting pool and just hanging out with other friends. We did get into our little pity fights with each other but what friends dont... The night she passed away I was at a football game and the fire department left and the cops left and I asked one of my friends what was going on and she told me 'two women passed away in a fatal car accident near the fairgrounds' I didnt think nothing of it until I got home and texted one of my friends asking if he knew what happend out at the fairgrounds and he texted me back 'Ruth Jones-Crayne and Tia Crawford are dead' the only thing I could possibly do is call my mother and tell her. I couldn't even cry when I found out I was that heart broken then when I got to my friends house who was dating Ruth at the time and when I hugged him I broke down crying my eyes out I just wanted say one last goodbye to my best friend but I was too late. I love my best friend/sister forever and I will love her daughter Keira the same way. I am happy Keira is being taught the rights and wrongs of everything by Ruth's wonderful mother Gretchen Jones. I miss you sister and I will see you again someday.
