Ruth Ellen Hartwell Rossow Written by Los Altos Town Crier Report
When a loved one dies, we must ultimately let go of their hand. On Monday March 8, 2021 we let go of the hand of our family matriarch, Ruth Ellen Hartwell Rossow, and placed her hand in the loving care of her Savior, Jesus Christ.
Ruth was born at home on November 25, 1926 in Omaha, Nebraska. A child of the Depression, she excelled at finding fun - paper dolls cut from newspapers, a bicycle (won in a contest), her cherished Shirley Temple Doll, Nancy Drew books, and Camp Fire Girls. She loved riding the city bus – a love that endured throughout life.
