CRUMP, Ruth Jeanette (Wilkinson)
(February 4, 1939 – October 20, 2022)
With heavy hearts we say goodbye to Ruth Crump, who passed away suddenly on October 20, 2022 at 83 years of age. Predeceased by husband Daniel (2019).
She is survived by her 5 sons, Alex (Jennifer), Jeff (Carole-Anne), Chris (Vivian), Joe (Margot), Peter, and daughter, Cindy. She cherished her 18 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren, who will forever miss their Grandma. Dear sister of late Lee Wilkinson (Avril), Marg Bowler (Bill), Donna Wanless (Bruce), late Wayne Hutchinson (Ann). Sister-in-law of Carol Young (Jim) and Gwen Crump.
Ruth graduated from Toronto Western Hospital then earned a degree in Public Health Nursing from Queen’s University and retired from Country Village Nursing Home.
She dedicated much of her free time to the community. Ruth served as a 4-H Leader, Harrow Fair board member, several leadership positions with The Women’s Institute and thoroughly enjoyed contributing her time to the Leamington Food Hub. Ruth loved attending bridge club, Red Hat Society, tending her gardens, quilting, and any chance to play a board game, especially with her grandchildren. Ruth was a gentle soul, and will always be remembered for her humility and kind-heartedness. She will be deeply missed by anyone who knew her.
At Ruth’s request, there will be no visitation or services; cremation has taken place. If so desired, memorial tributes to the Leamington Regional Food Hub would be appreciated.
