Our loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend died peacefully in her sleep after a short illness on June 21, 2005 at her home in Draper, UT, at the age of 80.
She was born in South Jordan, UT on June 8, 1925, to Ross Seymour Curtis and Alice Monson.
She married her high school sweetheart, Arliss H. "Ike" Goff, on Dec. 22, 1943, just before he left to serve in World War II. The marriage was later solemnized in the Salt Lake Temple.
Ruth and Ike built a beautiful pink brick home in Union, UT where they lived for 30 years and raised their family. They later moved to Draper, UT where they spent 23 happy years.
She loved being a wife and mother, nurturing her family, serving her neighbors, listening, cooking, and sewing. Her favorite things included music, genealogy, flowers, her childhood farm, holidays, a clean house, the scriptures, her children and grandchildren, her friends, and most of all, Ike.
She was an active member of the LDS Church, served as a ward and stake Primary president, ward Relief Society president, and many other callings. Her secret wish: to serve in the new Draper Temple.
A viewing was held on Friday, June 24, from 6 - 8 P.M. at Larkin Sunset Gardens, 1950 E. 10600 S., Sandy and on Saturday from 9:45 - 10:45 A.M. at the Corner Canyon 2nd Ward, 13400 S. 1300 E., Draper, where Funeral Services followed at 11 A.M.
Interment followed at Larkin Sunset Gardens.
Her happiness was not found in fancy things, but in her home and family.
REST IN PEACE.
