Tribute

It was with great respect and sadness that friends and family bid a final farewell to Ruth Meng Okholm on Monday, September 23, 2024 at her home in Kimberley.

That she was the kindest, most generous and helpful person was obvious to all who Knew her.  She loved nature as part of the family for whom she lived and who understood and loved her greatly.  She will be missed by all of us.

Ruth leaves behind her beloved common law partner Svend Jensen; her children, Daniel Peter Okholm, Ingrid Musser Okholm; her grandchildren, Owen Perrin (Sabrina) and Nicole Perrin; son in law Martin Musser Okholm; stepson Roy Jensen and brother Sam Rasmussen.  Ruth was predeceased by her cherished husband, Niels Okholm, her parents Sigurd and Wally Rasmussen and her step daughter Sue Jensen.

A Celebration of Life for Ruth will be held on Saturday, November 16, 2024 from 3:00 TO 6:00 pm at the Kimberley Nordic Center.  If friends desire, memorial donations may be made in Ruth’s memory to a charity of your choice and to a place that will pass on her kindness.
