Ruth Ellen Miller Sheets, 88, went to be with her Lord and Savior on Monday, May 17, 2021, after a very brief illness.
Ruth waited her whole life for this moment to see the kingdom of heaven. Ruth would always say “Dead in the Flesh; Alive in the Spirit!” She loved the Lord and served him daily.
She was born on April 19, 1933, in Kingwood, a daughter of the late Harley K. and Bessie Jefferys Miller. She married Robert Lee Sheets and moved to Beaver County in 1950 to start their family. She loved to sew, read and study her Bible; this gave her peace and comfort throughout her life.
Ruth is survived by her three daughters, Betsy Mazon, Rachel Brooks and husband Larry and Nancy Johnson and husband Harold; her son, Daniel Sheets; 10 grandchildren, 24 great-grandchildren; and numerous sisters, brothers, nieces and nephews.
Ruth was also preceded in death by her husband, Robert; her beautiful daughter, Dorothy Powell; infant grandchild, Michael John Powell; and a loving grandson, Adam Brooks.
Family will receive friends at Morgan Funeral Home, in Reedsville, at 13411 Veteran Memorial Highway, from noon-3 p.m. Thursday, May 20, the funeral hour with Pastor Sonny McNear. Interment will follow at the Howesville Methodist Church Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, monetary contributions can be made to the family to help with funeral costs.
Masks and social distancing will be observed during the visitation and funeral service.
