Ruth Stackhouse Obituary
Ruth (Ruthie) Stackhouse, 84, Rohrsburg, went to be with the Lord on Saturday, December 22, 2018. She was born on September 26, 1934, the oldest daughter of the late Raymond and Murl (Barto) Fiester.

Ruthie retired after over 33 years of employment with Magee Carpet Company, now Autoneum. She was a hard worker and enjoyed canning the vegetables Jay grew in his garden, cooking and baking; especially pies. Her pies were exceptional. She enjoyed working at the popcorn stand at the Millville Carnival.
Ruthie has been in failing health for over 10 years. Before dementia set in, she enjoyed reading and hymns; especially "The Old Rugged Cross", "In The Garden", and "Amazing Grace."
