Ruth attended Luther L. Wright High School in Ironwood – Class of 1957. She spent her working career as an ART (Accredited Records Technician) at Bellin Hospital in Green Bay, WI. She was most passionate about supporting NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness).

She enjoyed traveling, bowling, bocce ball, dancing, celebrating birthdays and shopping. What do these events all have in common for Ruthie? Time out and about with family and friends and being able to dress to the nines! She also enjoyed crocheting, cooking, and crossword puzzles.

Celebration of Life will be on Monday, August 11 @ 11:00 am – luncheon to follow @ Oakbrook Church, 3600 Lost Lane, De Pere, WI
