Ruth Josephine Waller was born on Nov. 6, 1916, in Deerfield, Iowa, the daughter of Ed and Ruth (Schrieber) Welch. She was united in marriage to Robert Waller Sr. and the couple became the proud parents of a son, Robert Waller Jr.

Ruth was a devoted wife, homemaker and loving mother.

Ruth was a resident of the Rockford area for approximately 65 years and was an active member of Holy Name Catholic Church and the Holy Name Women’s Group.

She treasured spending time with her family and found great joy in visiting elderly folks who lived near her, assisting them in any way she could.

Ruth was fond of being outdoors and appreciated nature. She enjoyed watching the birds, squirrels and rabbits outside her home, taking walks by the river and picking wild flowers. One of the highlights of Ruth’s day was walking to the downtown restaurant in Rockford to visit with all the local residents.

Ruth will dearly be missed by all who have shared in her life.

She is survived by her son, Robert Waller Jr. and his wife, Linda Bow, of Harper, Texas; her granddaughter, Rachael Waller and her husband, Rod Rondeaux, and her great-granddaughter, Cheyenne. She will also be sadly missed by numerous other relatives and friends.

Preceding Ruth in death are her husband, Robert Waller Sr. in 1979; her parents, Ed and Ruth Welch; four sisters and one brother.
