Ruth died at the home of her loving daughter and son-in-law, Michelle and Frank Kasziewicz, in Vancouver, Washington. Ruth took great delight at her job at Christian Supply Center, managing the Lloyd Center store and later as head cashier at the Division Street store. As one of her co-workers shared, “There was never a dull moment when Ruthie was around; she was full of life and spunk. Heaven is a little brighter this morning and definitely more lively!”

Ruth was preceded in death by her much loved husband, Ray.

Ruth is survived by her children, Fr. Gregg Bronsema, Rhonda Stott, and Michelle Kasziewicz; step-children Reni Schoepflin and Peggy Corbett; and sister, Beverlee Hunt.

A funeral will be at 11 a.m. Saturday, February 11, 2017 at Our Lady of the Lake Parish, 790 A Avenue, Lake Oswego, Oregon.
