Ruth was a good friend who set a high standard in all she accomplished. We appreciate her life and send our love to her family.Congressman Ed Bethune & Lana, Little Rock, AR
Many fond memories of this wonderful friend.RUTH FELT GREAT LOVE FOR PEOPLE.
There truly is a hole in my heart today. There are no words to tell you how much I loved Ruth. She was a mentor, an inspiration and a lady who made such a difference in my life. I know that Ruth has now joined her beloved TJ in heaven and what a sweet reunion that was. Love you all very much.
Ruth was such a wonderful, lovely lady. I will always keep in my heart the delightful times we spent together. Please accept my deepest sympathies for the loss of your Mother.
Ruth was a wonderful customer and friend. She was obviously a loving, caring mother from the stories she shared with me.
A few times in ones lifetime you are blessed with a friendship of someone who is of wise consul and who never waivers in who they are and who can maintain the high standard of life set before them. I learned so much about respect for my country, public service, our veterans, and our freedoms from Senator Ruth Whitaker. I count it an honor to have been included in the long list of admirers of this strong patriot, lady, and dear friend. I will always think of her when I see Old Glory wave as no one honored that symbol of freedom with their walk in life anymore than Senator Whitaker. My sadness is outweighed by the knowledge that she is forever reunited and at peace with the love of her life, Dr. T. J. Whitaker.
Ruth was a wonderful friend. I knew that I could call on her if I ever needed anything. She will be missed.
I loved Ruth, she was a very sweet lady and she will be missed.She and TJ did so much for District 4 and District 5 volunteer fire departments.I will be praying for all of youThank you Ruth for being an awesome person
I had great admiration and respect for Senator Whitaker. I served with her in the legislature on the House side, 2009-13. She may have been small in stature, but she was mighty in her service.
