July 17, 1925 – December 31, 2023

Our mother, Ruth, predeceased by her beloved husband Charlie, was a woman with a huge heart. She dedicated her life to family.

First to her three sons, Randy (Pat), Rick (Diane) and Ron (Karen); and then her grandchildren Ryan, Jay, Angus; and her great-granddaughter Elizabeth.

She also shared a great love and friendship with the Prigione family to whom she was "Gramma Ruth".

Ruth was incredibly brave in choosing the manner of her own passing and she taught us all how to live a life with humor, dignity and grace. Rest in peace, Mom.

Ruth is survived by her sister, Shirley. She was predeceased by her sisters Edna and Peg.

Memorial donations may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or Guelph General Hospital.
