She found immense joy in spending time with those closest to her. Her grandchildren were the light of her life, and she never missed an opportunity to shower them with affection. Known for her warmth and gentle spirit, Ruth had a special fondness for babies and could never resist holding one close. Her days were often filled with laughter playing bingo or during spirited card games with friends and family. Ruth was also an avid reader. Those who knew Ruth will remember her as the kindest, sweetest soul, always ready with a smile or a comforting word. Her legacy of love and compassion lives on in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to know her. In accordance with the family’s wishes, services will be private.
