Keogh, Ruth
January 1, 1939 – November 26, 2022
Ruth May (Burgess) Keogh of Harriston passed away at Palmerston & District Hospital in her 84th year.
Remembered by her daughters Catherine and Roger Waite of Ashfield, Dianna and Maurice Keels of Cambridge, Roseanne Keogh and Terry Genereaux of Cambridge, and Tracy Keogh-Pires and Kerry Rogers of Harriston. Loved dearly by her many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren. Also survived by her sister Nellie and Jim Jenkins of Los Angeles, and her brother Bud and Debbie Burgess of Winnipeg, MB., and will be deeply and sorely missed by Russy.
Predeceased by her parents Alfred and Alma (Laffin) Burgess, husband Bruce Keogh, son Michael Keogh, and her sister Katherine Spalding.
