"Staff at The Library Station were saddened to hear of the passing of Mrs. Ayres. We will always remember her. Over the last ten years that she had a card with the Springfield-Greene County Library, there was hardly a time she didn’t have an item--or multiple items--waiting for her on the hold shelf. Many times she would come into Springfield to pick up holds only to be notified later in the day that more items had arrived. She was an avid reader. During her time with us, Ruth checked out over 3,000 items. In addition to the many items she found within our library district, Ruth also made great use of our Interlibrary Loan services. She was full of spunk and would enjoy talking to the staff about some of her favorite reads. It will be a sad reminder not having holds on the shelf for Ruth. We will really miss her. Sending condolences for your loss. Best regards, Library Station Staff."
