Ruth was born in Lethbridge on July 26, 1927. She grew up on the farm at Kipp and attended school at Rollings Hills. Ruth was employed at several jobs over the years but started work in the dietary department at the hospital in 1980 and remained there until her retirement, making life long friendships with all she worked with.

After retiring, Ruth gardened in summer, baked in the winter and walked every day, weather permitting.

If friends so desire, memorial tributes in Ruth’s name may be made to the charity of one’s choice.

Ruth’s family would like to thank all those who assisted with her daily living and cared for her since May 2021.
