I am sadden to report the passing of Ruth (Fonda) Pitts. Magic lost one of its major lady magicians. Ruth was married Bill Pitts, former International President of the International Brotherhood of Magicians. Both in this marriage have IBM Rings named for them. Ring 186 in New York was named for Ruth and Ring 75 in Fort Smith, Arkansas is named for Bill Pitts.

There is also something timely to go with this.
Tomorrow Sunday February 5th is Bill's birthday. Please give him a call of encouragement. (He does not use the Internet.) Bob Sanders |

The February 2012 Linking Ring has a very nice write up about Ruth Ann Fonda Pitts. It can be found on page 53.

Yeah, I know how late this is, but I was thinking about Ruth tonight. Totally different reason.
Clark & Ruth Fonda were my mentors in magic. I just lost another old friend, and it just made me think back to my dear Ruth. Rrrrrr....life can be irritating sometimes, huh? I last saw Ruth and Bill at the IBM in Dallas a few years back. Then we got the emails that we had a few hours to send notes to her before she was gone. Jeez..... Ahhh...nobody will see this anyway, but I just hate crying alone. On the plus side, I got a junk mail today with the return address as follows: DEPARTING Planning for the end of life Is my wife trying to hint at something? -MJ |
