Ruth was always kind to our family when my husband, Hans, was pastor at Holy Trinity. She was very hospitable, and we enjoyed many delicious meals at her house. She loved music, and I was happy to see her in the audience at many Westmoreland choral Society concerts.
Blessings to the family.

Rest in Peace Ruth. Ruth was always fun to have in the shop, she was the littlest resident but, had such a huge heart. Glad to have known you Ruth.

My deepest sympathies to Ruth´s family and to all who knew and loved her. I have known Ruth all of my life, from my dad bringing me along to choir practices on Thursday nights to all of the choir Christmas parties through the years and seeing Ruth play the piano while my dad played the organ during services. She was always the sweetest person and she will be missed, but I do know that God just gained another beautiful angel to sing in his choir.
