It is with great sorrow that I pass along this news:

Ruthann E. *Ruthie” Stambaugh WD8BMK, nee Todd died of a heart attack in her home in Deltona, FL at the age of 51.  She was the daughter of Jim K8JE and Janice Weaver.

Funeral arrangements are through Shorten & Ryan Funeral Home, Mason, OH.  Funeral Mass at St. Susanna Church, Mason, OH at 11 AM Tuesday, September 9.  The family will receive guests at the Church beginning at 10 AM.  Burial will follow Mass at the Gate of Heaven Cemetery, I-275 & Montgomery Rd. (US 22).

Jim says that Ruthann was very active, especially in ARES/RACES, at one time but had been inactive in Amateur Radio in recent years. She had one daughter who lives in the Dayton area.

Jim appreciates the condolences that Janice and he have received.
