I was in school in Broadview with Ruth. She had such a beautiful smile, always a great personality. The Lord has her in heaven and we have her in our hearts. RIP Ruth, until we meet again.

Sincerely, Myra D. Lerat

I went to high school in Broadview Saskatchewan Canada in the early 1970's with Ruth. I will always will remember her bubbly personality and kind heart. She lit up any room she was in. Rest in peace Ruth. You are surely missed.

My Aunt Ruth was the best, I loved her so very much...
I will never forget the many times we were blessed to visit her and her family in Red Oak, making and enjoying homemade pepperoni pizza and whoopie pies-but best of all being there with her and her family! Her laughter was infectious, and her love impossible to miss.
From a very early age I knew that my Aunt Ruth was special. Her beauty went far beyond her sparkling eyes and her beautiful smile...she had an inner beauty of the heart that made her so very precious and dear to me.
My Aunt Ruth was a gifted musician and vocalist. She likely never knew just how much it meant to me when she came to Canada to accompany my Dad (her big brother), in a musical contribution at our wedding ceremony. Her presence and contribution with my Dad on this special day is, and always will be a most treasured memory.
But of Greatest influence to me...My Aunt Ruth loved Jesus-And through her life I was deeply touched by His Love through her presence in my life, and am so very grateful for the times she prayed for me and with me.
