Baptized and confirmed a Lutheran at Mt, Olive Lutheran Church Missouri Synod of San Antonio, TX. Ruthann also attended grade school there. A former El Paso Burges High School student always remembered and recited to everyone around her this "over the top" High School Football Fight Chant: "Rope 'Em - Brand 'Em - Stomp 'Em - Beat 'Em - Burges Mustangs Defeat 'Em " GO MUSTANGS!" We the family, unequivocally, loved the high energy she put into this high school pep squad chant!
Ruthann enjoyed a 30-year career as a Registered Nurse in her life's travels from Thomason General Hospital El Paso, TX to Northwest Hospital Chicago and on to Methodist Hospital San Antonio, TX.
