Ruth enjoyed sewing and making some of the most beautiful quilts, she also enjoyed

watching her favorite shows like Little House on the Prairie and Andy

Griffith to name a few, all while eating her favorite candy Reese Cups. She had

an amazing green thumb and could grow anything she wanted. She loved

going around to the different junk stores in town. She will be dearly missed

by all that knew her. The world is a little more boring without her in it. However,

anyone who knows the Lord will see her again one day. Please make sure the Lord

knows your name.

Ruth had decided to be cremated and laid to rest with her dad & mom. The family will

hold a private burial of her ashes at a later date.

We would like to give a special thank you to everyone that helped take care of our

mother in her last few months. Family members and all her friends in SunnySide (or

the hood as our mom liked to call it) Thank you all for loving our Mother.

Sharp Funeral Home is proud to be serving the family of Edna McCarter during this time of need.
