Ruth graduated from New Washington H.S. in 1947 and retired from G.E. after working over 39 years.  She was a member of Holy Trinity Catholic Church and the Rosary Alter Society. Ruth’s faith was very important to her and she looked forward to retirement so that she could attend more Masses.  She was a very generous person and enjoyed doing jigsaw puzzles, reading, and watching the Atlanta Braves baseball and Notre Dame football.
