Obituary published on Legacy.com by Clovis Funeral Chapel & Cremation Services on Jan. 20, 2026.
Ruth Anne Raney Bittick, born November 10, 1950, passed peacefully on January 15, 2026.

Ruth Anne was a devoted mother, grandmother, and woman of faith who dedicated her life to loving her family and serving others. She worked for many years as a secretary in the school system, both with the Los Angeles Unified School District and Central Unified, where she was known for her kindness, reliability, and caring heart.

She is preceded in death by her mother, Charlotte Fern Parks Raney, and her father, Virgil Raney.

She is survived by her three daughters: Whitney Lindhe (Lars Lindhe), Canna Null (Jeremy Null), and Ashley Souza. She was a proud grandmother to Jacob, Samuel, Westley, Ivy, Hank, and Emma.

Ruth Anne loved sewing and quilting. Above all, she loved Jesus and lived her life guided by her faith.

To her daughters, she was simply "Mommy." Her legacy lives on through her children, grandchildren, and all those whose lives she touched.
