Ruth was and is dearly loved by many people in the community. She was a manager at Lee's Market Place in Smithfield. She loved her job and didn’t want to quit even even with declining health because it gave her the opportunity to meet and talk to so many interesting people, which brought her a tremendous amount of joy. Ruth was kind, caring, and loving. She made friends everywhere she went and made sure everyone that came in contact with her felt loved and important to her.
