I will always think so fondly of Ruth. She was quite a firecracker! She always amazed us everytime she came into the doctor’s office with not only ONE goodie to munch on but about EIGHT! I think of her every time I pass by her old house near the firehall and that picture perfect yard. She was a lovely gentle kind-hearted sweet lady who touched many.
To all of her family I hope you all know how well known and loved Ruth was in this community.
Sincere condolences,

Erland please accept our condolences and prayerful support for you and Ruth’s family at this time of loss. Ruth became a very dear friend during our time at the Winfield Community Church. Erland, we cherish your visit to Medicine Hat – it was so very meaningful for you to bring her to visit us. I remember Ruth as always cheerful, such a sunny disposition, always punctual and made the absolute best jam ever! We miss her and thank the Lord that she is now at home with Him, relieved of any suffering she may have had to endure. Our love to the family.
