Ruth Ann Weiss

With love and countless memories, the family of Ruth Ann Weiss announces her passing on January 22, 2026. Born on September 13, 1937, Ruth lived a life full of spirit, humor, determination, and generosity. She proudly served her country in the United States Armed Forces, an accomplishment she carried with great pride throughout her life.

Ruth was known for her sassy personality and razor-sharp wit-famous for one-liners that could turn a tough moment into laughter or make a room go silent in the best possible way. She stood her ground with confidence yet had a giving heart. She loved canning, baking, sewing, and embroidering, and delighted in sharing the things she made with others. Above all else she loved spending time with her family and close circle of friends.

Ruth is survived by daughters Dawn (Ed) Tilford and Marjie (Lance) Amick, son Aaron Weiss, grandchildren-Samuel, Jacqueline, and Kyle, and four great grandchildren-Collin, Benjamin, Logan, and Kennedy, all of whom she loved immensely and were always at the center of her life.

She is also survived by her sisters Dorothy Dodson, Betty Hook, and Helen Freeseha, and her best friend Karen Kahrs, who remained a treasured presence for the last 50 years of her life.

Ruth was preceded in death by her husband Robert, and brothers Kenneth and Mark (Pete).

Ruth's legacy of wit, humor and generosity will live on in the memories and countless stories that will be shared with laughter and love for many years to come.
