I have wonderful memories of antique shopping with Ruth and Karen. The obituary says Ruth was a wonderful wife, mother and grandmother… which is true but I’d like to add that she was a wonderful friend and a great cook. Rest in peace.

Ruth and I met on November 2 1964 and became friends immediately. Eventually our families were all included in our friendship. We shared all the good times and bad all thru the years. We watched our kids grow up together. I feel like Dean and David are part of me. My husband, David and I have lost a BEST FRIEND AND SISTER. She is now in God’s hands and that gives me some peace.

I will always remember Ruth as an important part of my childhood. From the beautifully handwritten birthday cards that she sent through the mail each year (that I absolutely loved and looked forward to!) to her always having a Mountain Dew and Snickers bar ready for me when I walked to the Records Gebhart office after chorus practice! I can hear her voice, see her writing, and remember wonderful memories!
David, Dean, and family - may you cherish those wonderful memories and let her happiness and side comments, always leave you with a smile and full heart!!!

Your mom was a special person and a great friend -- I feel lucky to have known her and I will surely miss her. My heart goes out to you as I send my heartfelt sympathy to the Kreer family at this sad time.

So very sad to see that a longtime friend has passed away! We have many wonderful times at Records-Gebhart. Condolences and prayers to Dean and David and Ruth’s family!
RIP Ruth. Condolences to the family. Our family at Records Gebhart Insurance mourns you and appreciates your life’s givings . We hope you are at peace with Wayne now

I remember Ruth Ann fondly as a classmate at Dover school and as a (2nd or 3rd) Cousin of mine on the Willis side. I'm going to try to attach a picture of her and me at the Willis Reunion at Chestnut Grove School in Sept 1952 (we were 10 yrs old).
