I met Ruth a few yrs ago. She was a lovely person. She was a person with a upbeat personality. She loved her family dearly and was very proud of them. My condolences to Jack and family. - Posted by: Valerie Alderson (Homecare nurse) on: Aug 04, 2012

Ruth was my First Cousin. My Mom, Helen Rogers, named me after her and so I carry her namesake. As a very young girl, I have fond memories of her coming over to our family home on Bourkevale, bringing her young girls Blair & Sydney to play with me & my sister Susan (maybe sister Lesley too). Everyone was all 'gussied up' in their best dresses & we danced to LPs on an old record player in our dining room, such fun! My sincere sympathies to her husband Jack & her family.
