Ruth Welch Obituary
The family of Ruth Welch announces her passing on Tues. August 6, 2024 at the age of 78 at Sherwood Park Manor. Survived by her dependable, attentive brother John (Holly), sister Alberta Lougheed (Ken), sister Helen Lougheed (Ted) and brother-in-law Bob Lougheed. She leaves 10 nieces & nephews, 23 great nieces & nephews and 10 great, great nieces & nephews. Predeceased by her parents John and Mabel Welch, sisters Joan Lougheed and Gladys Preston and brother-in-law Gary Preston.
For years Ruth so enjoyed sitting in her car at Block House Island enjoying the St. Lawrence River, watching the big ships while visiting with others. Ruth did have a good sense of humour and had much fun at family get-togethers. She loved yellow roses and orchids. While at Sherwood Park Manor, Ruth quite enjoyed playing bingo and winning! It gave her great pleasure to watch a variety of birds perch at her birdfeeders.
Cremation has taken place, arrangements entrusted through Eternal Care Ltd. Visitation at 11 a.m. and funeral service at 11:45 a.m. on Sat. August 10, 2024 at Christ United Church Hall, Perth St., Lyn, Ont. Interment will follow at Oakland Cemetery with a reception after internment back at the Church hall. As expressions of sympathy, memorial donations to Sherwood Park Manor Nursing Home would be appreciated by the family.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to all the staff members of Sherwood Park Manor Nursing Home for their excellent care of Ruth. We know it wasn't always easy.
Many thanks to Madelyn Mensen - Eternal Care, Tom & Mike who assist at Eternal Care, with Special thanks to Mike.
