RUTH FRAES In the early hours of Sunday, June 5, 2005, Ruth Fraes, aged 89 years, passed away at the River East Personal Care Home. Her struggles are over and she is at peace now. Ruth was predeceased by her parents, Olga and Julius and two brothers, Richard and Ernest. Left to cherish her memory are her sister Agnes Rehbein; nieces, Joan Haley, Diane Mowdy, Sharon Gowler, Judy Sutton; and nephew Bob Rehbein. Ruth was born in 1916 in Inglis, MB. When she was still a young girl the family moved to Winnipeg. There Ruth attended George V School and then continued to live in the family home, enjoying her nieces and nephew, and later taking care of her aging parents. Neighbours will remember seeing Ruth working in her garden all summer, as that was her passion. Sincere thanks to the staff at River East Personal Care Home for their kindness and friendship. In keeping with Ruth's wishes, cremation has taken place and there will be no funeral service. GREEN ACRES Funeral Home and Cemetery Hwy. #1 E. at Navin, (204) 222-3241
