It saddens me to inform the org. that my friend Ruth, known on here as Paisley1710, passed away from liver failure on the 19th December, whilst in Lanzarote on holiday with her husband and daughter, she was 35.

Ruth was a lovely, bubbly, fun, caring, and generous girl, who always thought of others despite any problems of her own. I will really miss her. We all met up at Prince's 50th Birthday Boat Party in London, had a blast in Dublin and again at the Boat Party in November. She was bonkers about Prince, and loved Emancipation....

I'm sure you will all join me in sending condolences to her husband and lovely 13 year old daughter at this time...




This is one of the last posts Ruth made on the org. before leaving for Lanzarote..

My daughter has since told me she hopes she wishes she grows up to be like me as I want for nothing. All material things, and I do tell my daughter that THINGS do not bring you happiness, are a bonus after working for them.

The biggest prize of all is friends, family, health and being happy with what you have.

Rest in peace 'sweet cheeks'!


Holy cow Jenn, I just read it in PM&M and I wanted to send you and Heidi an orgnote about it but it is you who brought it to our attention. How did you find out?
Haven't seen Heidi, she probably doesn't even know yet sad

My deepest condolances to her family also. Heidi already told me she was such a sweet, crazy funny girl. And what a young age. It's only misery these days, people of young age dying sad
An old friend of mine died two weeks ago, he was father for one day, 42 years.
I just can't imagine that there's a god.

A big hug for you my dear.


Hi Carmen, we all received an email from her husband yesterday, myself, Lottie, and Syble, I was so shocked, then I spoke to him on the phone this morning, he said she had liver failure, it happened pretty much out of the blue, then her kidneys and lungs shut down and she died on the Friday. I have passed on everyone's condolences and told him about this thread in an email. He doesn't expect Ruth to be back in the country until the New Year, but her daughter is back in the UK with family. Ruth's dad is with her husband in Lanzarote. Lottie knows, but I think she's still trying to get her head around it. I'm very sorry to hear about your friend too, that's so unfair. And, yes she was a crazy, funny girl, a lot of laughs! But, she really thought and cared about everyone too.

Thanks everyone, I didn't know Ruth for very long, but she was a little ray of sunshine... and once you met her you couldn't very easily forget her! It's been a complete shock to all her family, as it was very sudden, and she was far too young, vibrant and lovely for this to happen.... but I know her father, husband and daughter will really appreciate your kind words, thoughts and prayers. pray


oh jen, u & i both..i spent today in shock trying to make sense of it, but realise there's no point.
i only met ruth twice, but felt like i'd known her my whole life.
she was that sort of person - she had a special quality about her, so warm & generous, absolutely genuine.
one of the sweetest people i've ever met, she was so funny without knowing it - that was her cuteness.
there were so many hysterical moments, i got some lovely memories of her..
maybe we can share later.
love to dave & 'princelet'
sleep tight ruth, TTFN x

Thank you to EVERYONE who has posted on this thread, I know Ruth would be very, very moved by all your kinds words and thoughts, she wouldn't expect it! I hope her family find some small comfort in how well thought of she was, and how much she will be missed... I'd like to dedicate 'In this bed I scream' and 'I can't make you love me' to her, she loved those songs... she was very passionate too. I hope she's at peace... sweet dreams Ruthie... heart

Dave sent me an email and asked me to cut and paste, and post this for him, as he had problems registering onto the org.


"To all Orgers who have made a post regarding the passing of my Ruthie.

It is with tears in my eyes that I write these words having read some beautiful words of condolence, compassion and love. It is heartwarming to hear so many people sharing memories and talking of Ruth as the warm and endearing person that she was. I feel blessed to have been in her life and she will forever be in my heart, our beautiful daughter Lois Paisley will be blown away when she reads all of your kind words, I shall print them off on my return to the UK and cherish them dearly. I cannot bring myself to listen to any music but Ruth will pass over to the music of her beloved Prince and Soul Sanctuary will be played for certain.

Thank You all once more for your thoughts and prayers and I know that Ruth would love to wish you and your familys a merry xmas.

All our Love & Dave and Lois x x x"

I've been feeling sad all day. I couldn't help but think of her although I only know her from your stories and some pics I saw back then. Thinking silly things like, she didn't have the chance to listen to Prince's new songs, she only wanted to lay down in the sun, relaxing, having cosy dinners at the beach with her hubby and kid. And only 35 years. Instead of having that careless and deserved holiday this happened, what an absolute shock.

Soul sanctuary of Prince.... I already get a lump in my throat listening to this song without this awfully sad story.

I already gave my condolences but I would like to give Dave and his daughter lots of strength in this very dark period heart
