Ruth Germann-Ford

On Sunday, August 21, 2016, Ruth Germann-Ford, age 59, beloved wife, mother, sister, grandmother, aunt and friend lost her battle with cancer after a short and valiant fight. She passed peacefully at home surrounded by her family. Ruth joins her parents, Friederich and Gisela Germann in everlasting peace. Ruth is survived by her husband Melvin of 35 years, daughters Melanie Turner and Evelyn Binkard; sons-in-law, Justin Turner and Andrew Binkard; her grandchildren, Aiden and Ava Turner; her sister, Gabriele Gundermann; her brother-in-law, Peter Gundermann; and niece, Jessica Gundermann.

 

Ruth was loving and supportive, a willing ear when needed and stronger than she ever knew. She gave of herself to those she loved. For those of us blessed with the opportunity to know and love Ruth, this is a devastating loss, though in our hearts we know she is in peace and no longer feeling discomfort. We will see her in our dreams, feel her love in our hearts and remember every day the strong loving woman she was. We shall see you again one day, Ruth.

 

Ruth has requested her family and friends celebrate her life instead of mourning her death. No service will be held.
