Ruth set a great example for all of us in her willingness to help others, help her church, love her family and love of her Lord. She will be dearly missed by all of us.

Dear Glenn and Ekberg family, Ruth will always be remembered by me as a very kind lady. I am grateful to have met her and how she became friends with my mother, Dora Winkler. My mother always enjoyed helping Ruth with serving cake and coffee at Fairhaven. Love Always, Sue Simmert (Leatherby)

I feel so bad that I won't be able to attend Ruth's memorial service because I will be in Michigan attending my nephew's wedding reception.
Lots of great memories having known ruth and Glen for over 60 years.
My prayers go out to you Glen and your family
