JACOBI, Ruth - Peacefully in her 92nd year with family by her side on Monday, January 15, 2018.
Beloved wife of the late Hans Jacobi (2004).
Predeceased by her sisters Irmi and Edith and parents Auguste and Karl; devoted mother of John (Tracey), she will be sadly missed by her grandchildren Heiden and Beck and niece Daisy (Claude-André).
Ruth lived a life full of love and adventure. Born in Davos, Ruth struck out on her own in 1955 arriving in Canada by ship to work in Toronto, where she would eventually meet Hans, the love of her life.
The Family thanks Kensington Gardens and all staff for their support and care over 14 years; doctors and staff at Toronto Western Hospital, physiotherapist Sian and assistant Alicia and to her many friends including Helmut and Zaneida Kellen, Helen McNeil, Ruth Zürcher and Francoise Sutton.
Cremation has taken place. Visitation on April 26th from 1-2 p.m. followed by a Celebration of Life at 2 p.m. at Mount Pleasant Cemetery in Toronto.
