Ruth was a member of Life Mennonite Fellowship Church in Willow Street. She cared well for her family and was an accomplished seamstress for many years. She loved spending time with her family, hunting, playing harmonica and singing. Even when she could no longer carry on a conversation, she could remember the tunes to many songs. She will be missed by all who knew her.

The Beiler family would like to thank Galen and Marcy Beiler, with whom she lived, and other caregivers for the wonderful support that was given to Ruth the past few years. Willow Tree Hospice provided loving care as well in the last 2 months of Ruth's life.
