Occupation: Social Worker in the Services to the Aged Unit of one of the Catholic Charities Agencies
Spouse: Michael
Children: Christopher Joseph (14 1/2)
I've been married to Michael for 26 years (boy does time fly). He teaches Computer Science at Cleveland Science at Cleveland State University where he's been since his old days there as a student. He sort of just never left and now has his 30 years in for retirement.
I'm the mother of one son, Christopher, 14 1/2 years old going on 21!!! Chris has some musicial talent (played snare drum at Kirtland High School this past marching band season). He's hooked up with a Drum and Bugle Corps out of Butler, PA, and hopes to march/tour with them this coming summer.
I can't figure out what I want to do when I grow up and am dually licensed in Ohio as both a registered nurse and a social worker. I've been at the same job for 20 years; talk about stability.
As of 2003:
Ruth was the Director of Wellness at the Jennings Center for Older Adults in Garfield Heights. You can see a photo of her in the Fall 2003 Hallmarks newsletter at www.jenningscenter.org/archive/Hallmarks_Fall03.pdf.
