— Steve & Lynn Thede, September 21, 2021Out sincere condolences to your family and Eddie. Ruth will be missed. Wayne and Sandra
— Wayne and Sandra Lytle, September 21, 2021Ruth and Ross were our neighbours when we moved to the log house across from them. We were new to the area and they took us in. Ruth made a point of including us and made us feel so welcome. We have been friends for almost 30 years and even though we now live in Nova Scotia, we kept in touch and we are going to miss our chats on the phone and all the news of Mount Forest that she shared. A wonderful lady, so kind and caring, just a treasure and we are really going to miss her.
Our deepest condolences to the entire family & to Eddie ! Rest easy beautiful lady
