Once her youngest child was off to school, Ruth Clarke completed a master of science and started a 20-year career in medical research
Lifelong Learner. Friend. Weaver. Genealogist. Born Sept. 27, 1926, in Grand Valley, Ont.; died Aug. 15, 2022, in Toronto, after a stroke; aged 95.
At the end of the year, Ruth returned home to marry her university sweetheart, Ernie Clarke, who became a professor at their alma mater. For the next 46 years, Ruth and Ernie shared a life full of travel, entertaining and the arts, not to mention four children – two boys and two girls – born between 1954 and 1959.
One stipulation for taking the job at Sick Kids was that she have summers off to spend at the cottage on Georgian Bay. This meant her children enjoyed carefree summers growing up, as did the many grandchildren who spent time there in Grandma’s care, even after Ernie’s untimely death in 1997.
