Ruth Eileen Eller, 84, of Blanchard, Oklahoma, entered in to rest on December 27, 2013 in Blanchard. The daughter of Daniel and Pauline Forrester, she was born December 9, 1929 in Marion, Indiana. She married Dale Eller in 1949 and together they had four children, Connie, Mike, April, and Sally. She worked for General Motors for many years until her retirement in 1995. In her spare time, she was active on several bowling leagues and enjoyed playing in slot tournaments and traveling with family and friends. Her greatest enjoyment came from spending time with her family.
She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband; a sister, Barbra Campbell; and a brother, Bill Forrester.
Ruth is survived by her four children, Connie Ripkee of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Mike Eller and wife, Veronica, of Marion, Indiana, April Eller of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and Sally Gomez and husband, Raoul, of Blanchard, Oklahoma; eight grandchildren; sixteen great grandchildren; and many other loved ones and friends.
Ruth was a devoted mother, grandmother, and trusted friend. She will be fondly remembered for her courage, strength, love, and devotion, and as a keeper of peace. Her name, "Ruth", means 'Beautiful Friend,' and that she was!
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11
Rest in peace, dear one!
