Ruth Kathryn Homan

May 24, 1921 – January 11, 2019

Ruth Kathryn Homan, 97, passed away January 11, 2019, at the Peaks Care Center.

She was born May 24, 1921, in Crook, Colorado, to Daniel R. and Mary Etta Gross. Ruth grew up on the plains of Eastern Colorado near Kit Carson. She attended a rural school for her first eight years of schooling. Then she was bused into Cheyenne Wells, where she attended one year.
