Ruth King Obituary

It is with sadness that the passing of Ruth King in Albuquerque, New Mexico is shared. Ruth, born on March 25, 1927 in Freeport, Illinois, passed away on August 21, 2026. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Ruth King to pay them a last tribute.

She is survived by: her husband Henry; her child Laurie (Scott); her nieces and nephews, Betty Jean, Joanne, Paul, David and Martha; her grandchildren, Wesley, Kim, Ashley, Katie, Stephanie, Giovanni, Daisy, Nathan, Isabella, Devon, Nika, Wilder, Fiona, Margot and Alice; and her great great grandchild Elias.

In 2021 Ruth moved to an independent living complex after spending a year and a half at son David's home in the Tijeras canyon foothills during 'Covid isolation'.

In lieu of flowers a donation to the public library in her name or to the Young at Heart Choir http://www.yahchoir.org would honor her memory.
