In Loving Memory of Ruth Julie Benjaminson
December 17, 1957 - April 16, 2025
With heavy hearts and deep love, we announce the passing of Ruth Julie Benjaminson, who left this world on April 16, 2025, at the age of 67. A resident of Jordan, Minnesota, Ruth lived a life marked by compassion, creativity, and faith.
Ruth was a kind-hearted and artistic soul who found joy in the simple things-sharing her love for the Lord with others, creating arts and crafts, and bringing laughter into the lives of those around her. She had a special place in her heart for animals and was always looking for ways to help others, no matter their circumstances.
She is survived by her children Mary (John), Paula (Cameron), and Quinten; her grandchildren Cozette (Tyler), Jace, Darrien (Cydny), Jaiden, Kayleigh, Logan, Alayna, and Zander; and many other loving relatives and friends. She was preceded in death by her daughter Callista, sisters Noreen and Linda, brother Craig, her parents Mildred and Norman, and other beloved family members who welcomed her home with open arms.
A celebration of Ruth's life will be held on Tuesday, April 29, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. at Washburn-McReavy Funeral Home, 5125 West Broadway, Crystal, Minnesota 55429. A luncheon will follow at Pine Grove Bible Church.
Ruth's warmth, humor, and generous spirit will be deeply missed but never forgotten. Her legacy of love and light lives on in the hearts of all who knew her.
