Ruth was born in Armada, Alberta on August 2, 1934, the sixth of eleven children and attended school in Lomond. Ruth, along with her sister Kathleen owned and operated a restaurant in Lomond before Ruth married Hank, the love of her life, in 1960.

Ruth was known for her knitting for friends and family alike, being clothed in sweaters and blankets made with love. Ruth was a mother in the truest sense of the word, her coffee pot was always on and there could always be a meal found and a spot available at her kitchen table. Her list of biological children is short but the list of those she claimed as children and grandchildren is too numerous to mention.
