1933 – 2017

Mom left us June 7, 2017. Pre-deceased by husband Karl in 2012. Survived by her daughters; Kathy, Karen (Rudy) and Jo-Anne. Grandsons; Clint (Tracy), Don, Mike and Brandon. Great Grandchildren; Tishyna, Emma, Sabastian and Isabella. Sisters; Betty, Hilda and Anna plus nieces, nephews and cousins.

Ruth was born in Kamloops in 1933. Upon moving back to Kamloops in 1973 she obtained a front office position with Brocklehurst Jr. Secondary School, staying with this school until retirement. At retirement Mom finally took up golfing, something she’s wanted to do for years. She found that she truly enjoyed chasing that little ball around and was pretty good at it too.

Mom loved her family. Mom especially enjoyed her visits with her great grandaughter Tishyna. She was proud of her and her accomplishments. The twinkle in Mom’s life was Bella, she just lit up when talking about this little darling.

Special thank you to Dr. Howie. Our sincere appreciation to the staff of Gemstone (Copper Neighbourhood) for your care and attention shown to Ruth. She liked the Gemstone facility and she had some good and funny conversations with many of you.

No service by request.
