Ruth united with the Rock Springs Primitive Baptist Church in 1963 and had a great love of the Doctrines of Grace and was a faithful member as long as health allowed. She was a strong advocate of loving her fellow man and exhibited this graciousness as she worked at the Rose Brothers Department Store in Booneville and Beattyville Kentucky for 35 years. It was her desire to always be a help to any with whom she came in contact. This was a rare quality that made her such a wonderful Christian, wife, mother, neighbor, sales clerk, or whatever she set her mind to do. She arose in the morning early with a smile and retired late in the evening with a smile with never a complaint. She exemplified the virtuous woman that is recorded in Proverbs 31 and her children do indeed "call her blessed" and thank God for her Christian testimony and influence in our lives. Funeral services were conducted on January 8, 2010 at the Booneville Funeral Home by her pastor, Elder Mickey Wilson. Her grandchildren sang hymns of praise: "Sweet Hour of Prayer," "What a Day That Will be," and "Amazing Grace." A poem that was written by her daughter-in-law was also read. Despite icy road conditions the chapel was full for the service which showed the respect and love that her church and community had for her. Ruth's body was laid to rest beside her husband and son in the Hamilton Family Cemetery even as her soul and spirit is basking in the presence of her Lord and Savior, awaiting the Resurrection of the body when it will be raised immortal and reunited with the soul and spirit to be with the Lord forever more. Because of this Hope and Surety in Jesus Christ we rejoice in the thought of that grand and glorious day!
