Ruth Eileen Hillier (née Keough) passed away quickly in her 99th year on
Dec. 24th, 2019. Beloved wife to Fred, loving mother to Mike and Birgit
Hillier (Goderich), Shelagh and Ric Konopka (Campbellcroft), Mike and
Maureen Rowland (Iowa), and dear Grandma to nine grandchildren and three
great-grandchildren.
She will be fondly remembered by nieces and nephews and friends. Ruth
enjoyed sharing memories of her happy childhood in Norwich, Ontario. She
left home during WWII to study nursing in Sarnia. It was here that she
worked at Sarnia General Hospital, married Fred at Central United
Church, raised her family and made life-long friends. Following Fred’s
death, she moved to Goderich and spent happy times with family and new
friends, attended church services at Knox Presbyterian Church, and
enjoyed watching sunsets over Lake Huron. Her family is ever grateful
for the kindness and support she received for many years at Goderich Place.
Ruth will be remembered as a kind and devoted mother and loyal friend.
Cremation has taken place and internment will occur in Norwich in the
spring of 2020.
