Ruth Pauline Ball
January 13 1932 – June 11 2025 Born in Ft Gay, West Virginia
It is with great sadness that the family of "Polly" of Port Richey, Florida, passed June 11, 2025. She is survived by 3 living children, Larry Ball, Linda Rub, and Gary Ball, 2 children deceased, Chuckie and Sandra, 10 grandchildren, 15 Great Grandchildren, and 4 Great Great grandchildren. Mom will be deeply missed by all that knew and loved her. Polly requested a private family gathering at a time to be determined. Please consider a donation to Hernando/Pasco hospice.
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds. Psalms 147:3
