Ruth Corprew Obituary
Ruth dedicated over thirty years of her life to her work as a housekeeper at The Ramada Inn. In her leisure time, she found joy in watching horror movies and indulging in her love for sweets, especially chocolate cake.
She was preceded in death by her beloved mother, Odell Barnett. Emma is survived by her daughters, Consuela Moodie of Norfolk, VA, and Lakecia Corprew of Virginia Beach, VA; her sister, Shirley White of Chesapeake, VA; six cherished grandchildren; nine great grandchildren; and her special friend, Antonio Ming. She also leaves behind a host of other relatives and friends who will miss her dearly.

Ruth will be remembered for her kindness, dedication, and the love she shared with all who knew her.
