She is predeceased by her husband H. George Fisk and survived by her three children: Sheri (Jim) Arnold, Winslow Maine, Karen (Rick) Palmer, Rochester NY and Steven Fisk, LaFargeville, NY, six grandchildren and five great grandchildren.
Ruth spent many years as a teller for the National Bank of Northern New York (Key Bank), well known to her many customers at the downtown and Northland Plaza locations.

She maintained lifelong relationships with many friends and relatives in the Watertown area, all of whom, along with her family, will miss her dearly.
Her family thanks all the friends and relatives who honored her with their frequent visits to hospice and we offer a special thank you to the amazing, caring staff of the Hospice of Jefferson County.
