A pleasant, sweet person, that I always enjoyed talking to . I remember her since my childhood. I always felt comfort in her presence. She came from a wonderful family and her and her husband raised a wonderful family. My heart goes out to each member of the family. She was a special blessing to this earth.

Dear Carswell family,
We were surprised and saddened to learn of Ruth's passing.
David and I have enjoyed many conversations with Ruth over the years while attending church with her. She was a sweet Christian lady.
You are in our prayers. We cannot imagine the loss this will be for you.
Praying your time of sorrow will be comforted by knowing Ruth will be waiting in heaven to see you again,
