I never put it all together until my husband was in my cafe one morning and saw her. She had been in several times. The first time she came in I thought she looked familiar. You see so many faces that come through small town cafe's that you stop and think "I know this person, but from where?" Then my Mom and husband proceeded to tell me who she was. It was really awesome to find out all the movies and shows that she had played on, many of which I did watch when I was younger. That is why she looked so familiar to me! I would just like everyone to know that she is a VERY down to earth and sweet person! Thanks Ruth for your continued patronage!

Each year I go to the Indy 500 & I see Ruth Buzzi at breakfast the day before the race. She is friends with Jim Neighbors, as she eats with him every year. He is at Indy to sing "Back Home Again in Indiana" prior to the start of the race.
