In 1942 the family moved to their permanent home in Bismarck. On June 24, 1943, Ruth married Robert M. Hart at Fort Monmouth, NJ, where Robert served as 1^st Lieutenant in the Army Signal Corp.

Ruth was a member of The Sanctuary Church and the VFW Auxiliary. She volunteered at the Burleigh County Senior Center, Medcenter One, and Q & R Clinic, and enjoyed her time when she was also involved in Calvary Senior Shepherd. In her spare time, Ruth also enjoyed craft projects. Family get-togethers were very important to Ruth, and she loved her friends.

Ruth will be deeply missed by her daughter and son-in-law, Sandra and Jerry Pritchett, Bismarck; nine grandchildren, 24 great-grandchildren, and one great-great grandchild; and her sister and brother-in-law, Susan and James Schneider, Bismarck.

We want to thank the staff of The Terrace for the wonderful care and support over the last eight years.
