Ruth had a way of making every day memorable when she was around. My thoughts are with her extended family.
Lynn and Ken Weller
Having Ruth as a friend was so much fun. As you all know, she was a character! After spending a week in Nassau, on vacation, Ruth, Estelle, Linda and myself, no one has, or ever will have, as much fun as we four.
Ken and I loved that gal! Ken still misses her “bum pinching”. We will miss her!

Happy memories of Ruth. She worked at across the hall from my office, an ad agency. Together with Lynne Weller, and Estelle, we had great times and became very good friends. Ruth was the youngest of the group and we called her “the kid”.
Am so sorry to hear of Ruth&&single&&s passing. I will never forget Ruth and Estelle&&single&&s kindness to me.

Was truly saddened to hear of Ruth&&single&&s passing. She was always such a great friend to me. I enjoyed her smiling face everyday she came in to Tim hortons. Such a wonderful lady who will be truly missed by everyone who had the honor of meeting her.

Dearest Ruth,my friend.
You will be sorely missed. Will always remember our fun sleep-overs after a night of bingo. And your dry sense of humour was second-to-none. Probably the most colourful houseguest Wayne and I ever had. Say hello to Wayne for me and get your feel in (I know you will).
Lots of love,
Diane.
