On January 17, 1947, the world was blessed with Ruth Evelyn Rogers. On Sunday, October 28, she became free and was able to meet Mother, Dad, and her first grand baby PoDunk. Ruth is survived by her children, Jim Hart (Tricia) and Alyssa Neff (Kevin), step children Doug Rogers (Michelle), Dawn Thornbury (Matt), and Duane Rogers (Amy), big sister Marilyn Flora (David), as well as her many beautiful grandchildren and dear friends. With a passion for travel and motorcycles, Ruth was always up for an adventure. She showed her love with tight hugs, snarky comments, and generous helpings of delicious, homemade fudge. Ruth will be remembered as a fierce defender of her beloved friends and family. Although her passing is announced with great sadness, we know she is giving them hell in her next chapter. A private gathering will be planned in the near future to celebrate Ruth’s life and legacy. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to help offset memorial expenses.
