RUTH E. HENDERSON Peacefully on Thursday, July 30, 2003, Ruth passed on at the Riverview Health Centre, with family by her side. Ruth was born September 15, 1916 in Winnipeg and always resided here. Her entire career was devoted to the CN Telegraphs at Portage and Main. Ruth enjoyed golf, bowling, curling, playing Bridge and travelling the world with all her wonderful fun loving friends. She was predeceased by her brothers, Donald, a war hero (R.C.A.F.), Dr. Stewart, Tom and Gordon. She is survived by brothers, Colin of Edmonton and Jack of Montreal; sisters, Mrs. Jean Peel of Silver Springs, Maryland and Ms. Verna of Washington, DC; and her many nieces and nephews. Family would like to offer special thanks to cousins, Bruce and Vivian; her old friends, Thelma, Mary and Peggy; and Sheldon Beel at Riverview. Ruth was a Philanthropist: always helping friends, neighbours and family members. Cremation has taken place at Bardal Funeral Home. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Parkinson Foundation. Kindness is the golden chain by which society is bound together. We will miss her dearly.
