Ruth Iverson was one of five children born to Ben and "Nettie" Annette Josephine Knutson Iverson. Her mother's sister, Clara Knutson was first married to her father, Ben Iverson. Clara died with the birth of their first child, who died the same day as Clara.

Ruth's father then married the youngest daughter in that family, "Nettie", Ruth's mother.

Ruth's maternal grandmother Kari Botolvsdatter Larson, born 1850 in Norway, was on the same ship in 1851 from Norway to America, with my g.grandfather Bendik J. Fjerstad, being first cousins and their mothers, Kari and Kristi, sisters. Kari and Bendik grew up on neighboring farms in Canisteo, Dodge County, MN where they were confirmed, as were their siblings and other cousins.

Published: 2014-05-06

Ruth was born into the home of Ivor Bernhard and Annetta Iverson on February 13, 1922 in Preeceville, SK. Ruth was predeceased by her parents.

She leaves to mourn her son Robert (Bonnie) of Regina, SK; grandson Kris Abrahamson (Alison) and their children Gavin and Berlin; granddaughter Cheryl E. Abrahamson (Miguel) and their children Canela and Leonardo; brothers Bernard N. Iverson (Margaret) and David R. Iverson (Sharon) of California; sisters Gladys Nazar and Ruby Goertz of Regina, SK; and many nieces, nephews, business associates and friends.

Ruth married Edwin Abrahamson, a hometown boy who had just returned from his service with the Navy in WWII, and they began their life together in Flin Flon, MB. Their son, Robert E. Abrahamson, was born February 6, 1949. In 1957, Ruth, Eddie and Bobby moved to Regina.

Ruth was predeceased by Eddie in April, 1999. Ruth was fortunate to have met and married Clarence Fisher of Regina a few years after Eddie's passing.

Ruth was predeceased by Clarence after only a few short years. Ruth was an outgoing, spectacular lady, and when most people retire at 65 years, Ruth began a brand new and highly successful 25-plus year career with Fifth Avenue Collection Jewelry of Moose Jaw, SK.
