Aunt Ruth was such a big part of our family. She was full of energy and laughter whenever she came to the Hurst household. And she was one brave cookie. The icy winter roads never deterred her when it was time to get to our house on Boxing Day. She will be greatly missed by many. May she now be enjoying the company of her siblings, husband and sons who left before her.

I always had so much fun at the crayfords home as a Child. I would be there for weeks creating chaos for her with her Children. I remember so many great moments. She started the tradition of coming to our house with the family during the Christmas holidays. She will be missed but the Tradition lives on.

Aunt Ruth was such an amazing lady. Always full of happiness and love. It was always clear how much she cared for her family and how much joy it brought her to be among them. I am so sad by the loss of Ruth, but I am also so thankful to have had her in my life. It is such a special feeling to be part of the extended Allen family, and for that I will always be grateful and have (Great) Aunt Ruth in my heart.

I'll miss you Grandma.  You will always be in my heart. xoxox

I always loved to see Aunt Ruth at family gatherings. I thought she was such a classy lady with a great sense of humour. She was always so nice to me and her home was so welcoming. With deepest sympathies.

"My dear, sweet Aunt Ruth...you were always my favorite auntie.  I'll never forget the happiness, zest of life & love you gave to others by just being you.  Always  remembered & loved...Joan Ellis nee Crayford"

My deepest sympathies to all the Crayfords.  May your hearts find healing in cherished memories.  I've always admired and respected Aunt Ruth's strength, positive thinking and kind giving heart.  She was such a pillar for us Allen girls and Kenny when Dad, her baby brother, passed away.  A special lady who will remain in our hearts forever.  Barb (Allen) Candeloro and family

I will always remember Ruth's smile and happy, carefree outlook on life.  I will keep her in my thoughts and prayers forever.
