Ruth E. Creasser, formerly of Sedgwick, Kansas, passed away on Tuesday, August 10, 2021 at her residence in Wichita, Kansas at the age of 92.
She was the daughter of Ausby J. and Alice L. Fry. She grew up in the Sedgwick area and graduated from Sedgwick High School in 1946.
On May 11, 1947, Ruth was united in marriage with Harold L. Creasser who preceded her in death on November 19, 2001.
Ruth had been a dedicated Red Cross blood donor and volunteer and was also an election board volunteer for many years. She worked part-time at a local meat locker and in later years at a retirement home. She enjoyed reading, gardening, camping, fishing and playing cribbage and pinochle. Her main love was being on the family farm raising various livestock, enjoying her children, grandchildren and family. She will be greatly missed.
Survivors include her four children: Belinda (Forrest) Creasser-Goff of Harvest, AL, Cecelia Gwinup of Towanda, KS, Wayne (Mary) Creasser of Sedgwick, KS, Glenna (Ron) Gardner- Fowler of Valley Center, KS; a sister-in-law: Lila Fry of Olathe, KS.; 12 grandchildren and many great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her parents, one brother (Edward Fry), two sisters (Helen Grattan and Clara Linden), two brothers-in-law (Jack Grattan and Jim Linden) and a son-in-law (Doug Gwinup).
At Ruth's request, there will be no formal memorial service, especially in light of the current pandemic. Instead, she asked each family or individual to have their own Celebration of Life as they choose, but in a safe manner.
Memorials can be made to American Red Cross, Kansas Humane Society or a Charity of your choice.
