No the universe will not be the same.  I want to believe in the immortality of the soul because such a beautiful soul should never leave us.  This is so painful.  Thank you for informing us Joan.

It is with great sadness that I write that Sally Ruddick died last evening after a long, brave struggle with Parkinson’s Disease.

I don’t know much about the details, except that Sally died peacefully.  I will send more information if and when I have it.

Bill Ruddick’s email address is

The planet will not be the same without Sally.
