FICK,
Ruth
Anna (formerly
POWERS, née
WOOLL)
Died peacefully in her 92nd year after losing a fight with pneumonia
in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. Ruth was born in Saginaw, Michigan,
to the late John Oliver
WOOLL and the former Edith Eliza
BAILEY.
Ruth attended Saginaw High and continued her education with secretarial
studies. She met a young Canadian Evangelist, the Reverend George
Max POWERS, senior. They fell in love, were married, moved to
Sarnia, had four daughters and later moved to Walsingham where
George pastored the Free Methodist church; there they had a son.
George died of cancer in 1947 and Ruth continued as a lay pastor
in Walsingham for the next three years. In 1951 Ruth was again
in love and married William Ernest
FICK, senior, of Marston.
The family moved to a farm at R.R.#3, Tillsonburg where Ruth
had another son. Ruth had a full life, raising a family, farming,
playing an active role in the Cornell Women's Institute, and
for many years holding positions of service at the Tillsonburg
Free Methodist church: youth leader, Sunday school teacher, pianist,
organist and board secretary. Ernest died in 1990 and in 1993
Ruth moved to the senior apartments at 31 Maple Lane, Tillsonburg,
where she met many new Friends. In 2005 she moved to the F.J.
Davey Home in Sault Ste. Marie, where she quickly adapted, again
making more new Friends and enjoying delicious meals. Until contracting
pneumonia, she remained mentally active, e-mailing and chatting
online, and hearing, for the first time, a live performance of
Handel's Messiah - a special treat was arriving early, catching
the end of rehearsal and hearing her favourite song, the Hallelujah
Chorus, twice. It is common to hear her Friends and family say
they valued her Friendship and prayer support. Her passing is
their loss, not hers. She will be deeply missed. Ruth was the
dear mother and mother-in-law of Lois
STOVER;
Tillsonburg;
Geraldine
POWERS (deceased 2001;) Edith
GARWOOD (deceased 1999,) Don (Pat)
GARWOOD, Uruguay; Ruth (Joseph)
INFURNARI, Dunnville; George
POWERS (deceased 1995,) Linda
MAE-
POWERS,
Haliburton; and William
(Carol) FICK, Sault Ste. Marie. Ruth had 14 grandchildren and
20 great-grandchildren. She prayed for them all daily. Ruth was
predeceased by one sister and four brothers. Ruth is resting
at Verhoeve Funeral Home, 262 Broadway, Tillsonburg, Ontario
(519-842-4238) where service will be held in the chapel on Saturday,
