Excellent advice. Met Ruta at the Western Legends Roundup in Kanab, UT in 2011. What a great person!! Just an absolute kick. Must be a delight to know in person and to live and love with.
Ruta Lee was on of those special people who were a public figure and found time to visit our hero's in the hospitals during the Vietnam crisis. I was a corpsman at the time she came around and personally brightened the day of many of our wounded on the wards of Carswell AFB Hospital.
He was kind and delightful. She on the other hand was horrible. I served her and she was unhappy. I apoligized and she did an impression of me. Her charitable work falls on deaf ears with me. It's how you treat people.
