Ruthie worked as a Mother, homemaker, and childcare provider for dozens of children over the years. She loved gardening, bowling, playing Scrabble, and doing ceramincs with her dear friends. Ruthie also adored spending time with her kids and grandkids.
She leaves to mourn her passing her sons, Bud (Norma), Douglas (Cara), Allan (Shelly); daughters, Laurie (Robin), Linda (Rudy); grandchildren, Nick, Will, Thomas, Traci, Josh, Carter, Sylvan, Eli, Liam, Talia, and Amelia; along with many, many siblings, extended family members and friends. Ruthie was predeceased by her parents, Katherina and Jacob Gerbrandt; husband, George, many dear brothers, sisters, friends, and family members. Most recently, Ruthie tragically lost her beautiful grandson, Bradley Webb at the age of 20. We know that today they are reunited in Paradise.
