Ruth spent the past six years at the South Country Village. She met a lot of people there and her gifts of caring and respecting the staff and residents was a mutual, loving relationship. Ruth had previously volunteered at South Country Village when her mother attended there. She spent many of her volunteer hours helping in the kitchen. They are still using some of her cookbooks. But Ruth’s most amazing quality was the love for her personal saviour, Jesus Christ. She was a humble and loving woman that was obedient to God. She was always careful in her thoughts and actions and prayerful when seeking God’s will. She was always an example of God’s grace to those around her, and would lead by example by infrequently using ill words about others. She was certainly a beautiful woman and will always be remembered by her giggles, big smile, and a spectacular example of God’s grace. Ruth passed away peacefully at her home July 9th, 2024. The family will celebrate memories and find comfort with the difference that Ruth has made in their lives. She has left to be in God’s hands. There is no better place to retire to. We love you.
