She left us and our family with many happy memories. We enjoyed their coming and spending time at their cabin at Wasa. We still look forward to seeing the extended family (including Bob) hopfully coming often. Needless to say we will miss the pleasure of Ruths company. See you soon.

Take care, Sandy & Bill Wilson

Wasa

Bob and Family,

Please know that our sympathetic thoughts are with you at this time. We are so sorry to hear of Ruth’s passing. You were both so welcoming to our family when we moved into Britannia–we truly miss seeing you as our neighbors across the street.

Best regards always,

Ben and Jane Van Sant

Our heartfelt sympathies to the Erickson family. Mrs. Erickson was a lovely lady, we enjoyed our chats with her at Wasa lake. May her spirit live on in your hearts…

Kelly & Jeff Kay and family

Ruth and I were friends for many, many years. I have such wonderful memories of our fun times together. My thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time.

I met Ruth less than a year ago at dinner at Garrison Green and recognized immediately the charm and capacity for joy this gracious lady had…the sparkle that showed as she looked at Bob and spoke of her family. I wish I had known her longer.

To Bob and the family..you will be in my prayers not only today but as you get used to life without dear Ruth

On behalf of the Erdman family in Vancouver, our deepest sympathy on the passing of Ruth to Bob, Nancy, Mardy, John and families. I will remember her as a kind and caring next door neighbour while growing up, a very dear friend of my parents. She will be deeply missed. Ron Erdman

Our heartfelt sympathies to the Erickson family and Ruth’s extended family. Ruth was a wonderful friend and neighbour of our family. We are remembering her intelligence, generosity and empathy, and know she will be greatly missed.

I was fortunate to visit with Ruth just a few times. Her warmth and intelligence impressed me instantly. Well versed on many subjects, the conversations were interesting and thought provoking. I feel cheated that we didn’t have more visits. She will live on in Mardy and for that our family is grateful.

My deepest sympathies, I will remember Ruth as a grand, gentle, incredibly friendly lady. I wish I could have known her longer.

Our deepest sympathy. We will remember Ruth’s warm and generous welcome when Uwe and Jocelyn married. She will be greatly missed.
