Although never having children of her own, Ruth had special relationships with her nieces, nephews, great nieces, and great nephews. She was a faith filled woman, attending church daily until recently. She was a member of St. Cecilia’s Parish. Her husband, Arthur J. Soucy, died in 1987. She was also predeceased by her sisters, Florence Beaudoin, Marjorie Liberatore, Rita Guertin, and Helen Currier.
