Farewell to a Legend<\/strong>\n\nA legend died today, I know\nIt\u2019s hard to comprehend.\nThat after nearly a century\nYour era came to end.\n\nYou taught me how to write in verse\nWhen I was just a girl.\nThe words would form within my mind\nThen on the page unfurl.\n\nYour love of music, poetry,\nAnd all creative things,\nDeveloped deep within your soul,\nThen flew on feathered wings.\n\nFrom childhood you possessed the knack\nTo tickle ivory keys,\nAnd even in the end you played\nSweet piano melodies.\n\nYour children bid you fond farewell\nWhile standing by your side,\nBut your dear songs will never die,\nFor in us, they reside.\n\n-Ashley Rescot\nJanuary 4, 2022\n\nIn memory of poetess Grandmother Ruth Scheer\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Mother of ten, grandmother, great-grandmother, fellow musician, and author, this larger-than-life person has inspired so many people over the course of nearly a century. Today, I\u2019d like to honor the life and work of our own family legend, my Grandmother, Ruth Scheer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
