Condolences for the family of “POTZEL: Ruth”
I was sad to learn, of Ruth’s passing away. A lovely lady and hard worker. I worked with Ruth at Maitland Manor so it has been a long time since I have seen her. I remember her smile and laughter and how they loved to travel with their camper. My condolences, to the family and may Ruth – Rest In Peace! Elaine Smith

Oma was an amazing woman and I admired her immensely.
Anytime I was in her company she always managed to keep me on my toes. Shopping was always an adventure.
I will always remember her and miss her dearly. I am very grateful to have had her in my life.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all, in this difficult time.
Love Carrie
Your Mom & Dad were the Pillars of Wilson Street — we had many conversations when they walked pass our house on the corner over the years.
Was so nice to have them as neighbours. Ruth is at peace now.
To Barb, Gerda, Veronika & families we extend our sincere condolences on the passing of your Beautiful Mom & Oma Ruth. She was a firecracker! I adored how she loved a good drink, laughs with friends and family, and wearing stylish clothes. Rest in peace now Ruth with your beloved Hans.
Our sincere condolences to Ruth’s girls and their families on the loss of a lovely worman.

I am so sorry for your loss. I was hoping to visit Mrs. Potzel this summer, as Gerda shared that she still was at home and remembered me. I remember all of you and wish you strength in this awkward Pandemic time for closure and the warm condolences of friends.
