Ruth C Parks

Ruth C. Parks (Nee Becker), age 87, passed away peacefully on June 1, 2021. Ruth was preceded in death by her husband, Myron and daughter, Deborah. Loving mother of Michael (Randie) Parks, Lynn (Darryl) Reinick and Sharon (Michael) Harding. Proud grandmother of Joseph (Lindsey) Parks, Matthew (Elyse) Parks, Lauren Reinick, Jordan Reinick and Morgan Reinick. She enjoyed her greatgrandchildren Jessie Meyer, Juliette, Ellie and Connor Parks. Ruth was a lifelong Milwaukee area resident. Her passion was her family, hosting holiday gatherings and shopping for her family or with friends. She vacationed for years in St. Martin, then Bonita Springs while spending summers at their condo in Sister Bay. She always enjoyed working on craft projects then found her artistic desire growing and started painting. In recent years her adult coloring work marveled us. The family would like to express a special thank-you to Ann M. Maguire, MD at Froedtert Hospital as well as all the specialists who diagnosed her condition. There were also numerous in-home caregivers and we are grateful for their care. The family suggests a donation to the ALS Association - Wisconsin Chapter or a charity of your choice. A private memorial service was held. Interment at St. Adalberts’s Cemetery.
