Hi,
  Yes, Adah Ruth Ballard passed away early last Saturday morning.  There
will be a memorial service for her this Friday, March 19 at 11 a.m. at the
Storrs Congregational Church, 2 North Eagleville Road in Storrs,
Connecticut.  Please let me know if you might like more information about
this.  
  Adah Ruth was a lovely woman whose support of her husband Frank over the
past years has been phenomenal.  Her support of the Ballard Institute and
Museum of Puppetry, which I direct, has also been wonderful and unceasing.

Best wishes,

John Bell
