1963-1994 HISTORY: Bob Wagner [nephew] and Pam Wagner his wife were able to visit Ruth and her father at their apartment, 323-A E. McCarty Street, Jeff City, MO. Adolph was a pharmacist at G.A.Fischer Drug and Ruth also worked there as a cashier and in the cosmetic department . It was the only job she ever had.
Bob visited Ruth when he had Dental lectures in Omaha and Springfield MO, as well as when Bob went with Kent Kimister to the Chicago mid-winter Dental meeting. After buying our home in 1977, also began to drive back to visit, one year taking son Paul with us, going to Minnisota a couple of times and driving down to visit. Bob and Pam began going with his sister and husband several times, including her funeral and the year after to finish her estate, as well as several times after to visit other family we had met. She was fun to visit with, and we enjoyed taking her to lunch or dinner at Nick's Homestead, Yen's Chinese buffet and across the River to the Olive Garden in Columbia. She also loved to go to Stevenson's Apple Farm in Independence, but we did not get the chance to take her there.
Ruth loved to go out to eat and spent many days a month going with Lucy and Lloyd Tracy to the cemetery and to their home and to restaurants, as well as Clare Brocksiek, Ruby and Al, Virgie, Jim and Susie Wisch, and others. Jim's birthday was the same day as Ruth's and they celebrated them together many years. [see Family History-Wagner, Ruth]

1994 DEATH,BURIAL: MO,Cole Co-Jefferson City: Ruth Elizabeth Wagner died 5 Oct 1994; buried Riverview Cemetery, same row as parents. Bob, Pam and Paul went back to the funeral. After, we , along with Ruth's niece, who didn't know about Bob, separated things out in her apartment. I remember making a list aand putting who received what from the will and otherwise. S"he was not too happy about the situation. Bob and I had to get back to MT for work and mission business, so left Paul to clean up the apartment, make sure everything was in order, taking thre rest not taken to Good Will. He also dedicated her grave. We had rented a U-Haul to carry what furniture we had back home, and Paul had the tan van. He bought some ice crean at Central Dairy and it lasted until back to Montana, using dry ice. That started the tradition of buying that wonderful ice crem and bringing it home.
