MATTHEWS RUTH
MATTHEWS, Ruth Eleanor (nee Lowe),
1933 - 2012, passed away on Thursday, May 10, 2012. Beloved wife of the late John Edward (Bunny) Matthews who passed away on April 5, 1999. Ruth was the only child of Daisy (Arnold) Lowe (1993) and Robert Lowe (1982). Ruth will be missed by her son David and his wife Anne (O'Dwyer) Matthews and their daughters Meika (Pete Spencer) and Lauren (Greg Ardiel) as well as Ruth's long time friend Shirley Long. Ruthie was a loving and caring daughter, friend, wife and mother. Ruthie was also a devoted grandmother and was at her happiest when she was with Bunny and spending time with her "little girls". While Alzheimer's may have robbed Ruthie of her own special memories, her family lives on to remember and to tell her story.
So we've already said "Good Bye",
To the person that we knew.
The person that we truly loved,
The person that was you.
And so, when we remember,
We'll think of all the rest.
We'll concentrate on earlier,
And remember all the best.
We think of you as yesterday
When you were fit and well.
And when we're asked about you,
It's those things that we'll tell.
(D. Underwood 2010)
