Ruthe was a lifetime, involved member of the VFW Ladies Auxiliary Kaniewski Loss and Holy Cross’ Mothers’ Club. As a young woman, she sent care packages to many Vets during WWII and then continued many of those lifetime friendships. She was a 29-year Birthright volunteer and for over 10 years anonymously made treat bags for the seniors at River Village at St. Hedwig’s. For decades she sewed naugahyde carry- all bags as gifts for family, friends and the elderly. She sewed free for one year for a Vietnam Veteran who was starting his own upholstery business after having already sewed a full day herself and then going home to take care of her family. She led a life of giving freely of her time and her talent to help others. She retired after 37 years sewing upholstery only to retire again permanently after several years of hand sewing and inspecting heart valves. To those staff members of Park River Estates Care Center who always treated our Mother with dignity, kindness, and compassion (you know who you are), our family thanks you.
