Ruth Wilma Bax (nee Pollock)
Grateful to have spent her last days with family, our deeply loved Mum, passed away peacefully on Sept 16, 2021, in her 84th year with family by her side. Ruth is now reunited with the love of her life, our father James (Jim) Clarence Bax (1994).
Predeceased by her parents Wilmot Victor Pollock and Nellie Rachel Geraldine Pollock (nee Sheane), her brother John Davis Pollock (1983) and sister-in-law Gwendolyn “Gwen” Isabelle Pollock (2010).
Ruth will be sadly missed by her children Heather (Scott) Fettes of Meadow creek B.C and Michelle Bax (Chris) of Vineland, ON, and by her beloved grandchildren, Michaela , Kama-Anne, Kanysha Bax-Leaney and Isaac Fettes.
Fondly remembered and cherished by her niece Debbie (the late Stanely) Williams of London, Dale(Louise) Pollock of Tiverton, Dean Pollock of St. Catharines Suzanne(Andrew) Marshall of Aurora as well as her great nieces and nephews Sarah(Josh) and Kaitlin Williams, Kent(Krystal) and KylePollock, Samantha(Jordan) and Drew (Rebecca) Marshallwill be especially missed by her beloved great, great nephew Ayden Williams.
Our Mum was lovingly “adopted” by our father’s family when they married on May 16, 1964; Hank(Margriet) Bax, Herb(Janette) Bax, Bernie (Tina) Bax, Jean(Pete) Vanhelden, Gertie (the late Adrian) Wielhouwer, Margaret (the late Albert) Herfst, Clarence(the late Lorraine)Bax, Frits(Jan) Bax, the late Art Bax(Barb), the late Mary (the late Bert) Hummelen and the late Joanne(the late Bill) Vander Ploeg. Her presence will be deeply missed by her surviving brother and sister in laws and many nieces and nephews as well.
A bright light has definitely been dimmed in our family, our Mom’s beautiful blue eyes that sparkled when she smiled have closed here on earth, however, we rest in the knowledge as Ruth did, that we will be together again. There is rejoicing in heaven, Ruth’s eyes are wide open there, she is finally in the arms of her husband Jim, never to be separated again,she is surrounded by those who have gone before and she is finally with her Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
