RUTH WAREHAM
Ruth was a loving mom to Cathy, Bill (Karen), Judy (Herm) and Gord (Jane). Her grandkids, Lyndi, Telsa, Sadie, Asha, Robyn, Maddie and Sam eagerly awaited their visits. Ruth amazed her own kids returning from work to dinner made, cookies baked, and their kids telling of trips to the park, tea parties, and games with Grandma. Her love and laughter will be remembered by everyone whether they called her Mom, Grandma, Auntie, Mrs. Wareham, or Ruth.
Special thanks to St. Norbert Personal Care Home for their compassionate care and the video calls that allowed her to visit and meet her great-grandson Avery.
A service will be arranged when people can gather. In lieu of flowers, please show kindness to all around you.

Sending my condolences to the family and friends of Ruth. She was such a kind hearted, loving soul. I will miss the many laughs and dances we shared, she always brightened my day. Ruth is missed dearly and I will always remember her. <3 - Posted by: Desiree Neault (Therapeutic Recreation at St Norbert PCH) on: Dec 12, 2020

My sincere condolences to “Uncle Al” and family. I attended Wareham & Crowe Christmas parties when married to Larry Dale which were so well planned and decorated to the tee, which I am sure was due to Ruth & Dorothy’s talents. Aunty Ruth & Elaine Dale threw a surprise bridal shower for me. She had such a gift for party planning, decor and delicious foods! To this day, I am grateful for a celery bake recipe that Ruth shared with me ages ago. She was so kind and always made me feel welcome. She will be missed. - Posted by: Sonya Bertoncello-May (Family friend) on: Dec 10, 2020

Our deepest sympathies to Uncle Al and cousins Cathy, Bill, Judy, Gord and families. Auntie Ruth was a gem. I have fond memories of visits with our city relatives on the farm and a very special summer when my sister Sandra and I spent time with our cousins in the city. Auntie Ruth’s sense of humour and laugh always brought light into any room. Truly a beautiful person inside and out. Much love Lori and Murray Cumming - Posted by: Lori and Murray Cumming (Nice ) on: Dec 09, 2020

Sorry to hear of Auntie Ruth's passing. I was one of those rascals! And not only at the Wareham and Crowe parties. Our family spent many occasions at the Wareham house and cottage. My thoughts are with you all at this time. Larry Dale - Posted by: Larry Dale (Family friend ) on: Dec 07, 2020

So many fond memories of this lovely lady from years gone by. Those Wareham & Crowe Christmas parties were wonderful! Although we haven’t seen Ruth for many years she is often in my thoughts as I still make a wonderful carrot salad that she passed on the recipe for. Our hearts go out to Al & the rest of the Wareham family. Rest well Ruth. - Posted by: Renee & Bill Butchart (Friend) on: Dec 07, 2020

Fond memories of Wareham & Crowe Christmas parties with Ruth and Dorothy opening their homes, planning and preparing delicious meals for all the staff, not to mention Ruth's good nature tolerating all the hullabaloo from a few of us exuberant party rascals, who shall remain unnamed. Many a good time at those parties; now treasured memories. Our sincerest condolences to the entire Wareham family at this very tender time. You are all in our thoughts. - Posted by: Jim and Diane Crowe (Family friend) on: Dec 05, 2020
