Ruth Goldman Obituary

Ruth Goldman
1942 - 2022
Resident of Sunnyvale
Ruth Goldman passed away on January 29, 2022, five days after the passing of her husband Aharon, at the age of 79. Ruth formerly resided in Sunnyvale, California. She was born in Tel-Aviv, Israel, to two hardworking immigrants from Germany, Joel and Fannie.
Ruth was an outstanding student and would attain an undergraduate degree in bible studies as well as a masters in theology. She married Aharon and lived in Haifa, Israel before moving to Denver to begin a long and enjoyable American adventure. She worked as a teacher at a Jewish day school in Denver for nearly 20 years.
Ruth was a doting, loving mother, wife and daughter. When her parents became ill, she spent many weeks in Israel caring for them, making sure they had the best possible care. As a parent, she was an expert in results. The consummate doer, Ruth would enroll her children in any class, teach them anything they wanted to learn and drive them to any sporting event they wanted to attend. She was caring and dedicated to Aharon, her husband of nearly 60 years.
She will be missed and loved forever. She is survived by two sons Roy and Eilon (aka Lonnie), two daughters-in-law, two sisters-in-law, six grandchildren and numerous cousins, nieces and nephews.
