Ruth Alice Hasse-Ellsworth (nee Fleming), of Saint Charles, MO, passed away Saturday, August 9, 2025, at the age of 86.

Ruth loved music, especially country, and enjoyed playing Bingo whether she won or not.

A devoted St. Louis Cardinals fan and talented dancer, she was well known as a Sterling Rockette, never missing a show. In her younger years, she enjoyed knitting and crocheting. Ruth was dearly loved and will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
