As an Air Force and Navy wife she traveled and worked as a professional secretary in both civil service and private sector jobs. She was an avid bowler, pinochle player and a great cook.
Ruth described her life as an adventure.
She is survived by three daughters, Paula Kennedy (Bob), Janet Wilson (Wade) and Linda Monroe (Steve); six grandchildren; and five great-grandchildren.
Ruth was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother who will be missed by all.
A private family memorial will be held at a later date.
