Grandma always had an infectious smile that those around her will forever remember and appreciate, full of energy and purpose with all her daily tasks. Grandma never seemed to walk, but instead, seemed to run to complete those tasks. Watching her go was both an inspiration and exhausting. Words often used in "The Store" to describe Grandma were WOW and Amazing.
Grandma, you will be remembered.
Thinking of your entire family at this time of sorrow and celebration. This was one of the best written obituaries I've ever read. Congratulations on the profile of your mother helping those of us who never knew her to understand what a strong principled woman she was. May your family, friends, faith and fond memories of the life lessons she taught you give you comfort in this difficult time.
I will remember Ruth Young with great love and respect. She was a steady hand with a simple, yet very solid, view of life that everyone who knew her could learn from. I have to say I admired her and her influence will always live with me. My deepest condolences to her whole family. Ruth lived a long and productive life. She was a positive influence on everyone who met her. Love, Greg.
Ruthie was a stalwart presence at every family and life cycle event. While she was tiny in stature she was certainly mighty in character. She was a no nonsense matriarch. She loved to hear what you were doing, however, she would freely offer corrective advice if it wasn't up to standard! Ruthie's exemplary life was a devoted service to her family and to the community that she served in North Toronto. May her memory forever be for a blessing.
Will always remember Auntie Ruthie’s small stature but large heart. That smile will be embossed in my mind. I’m sure she’s having a good reunion above and baking for all!
