Ruth Crist

April 4, 1938 — May 22, 2024

Ruth Crist, a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and longtime employee of Dayton Telco, passed away on May 22, 2024 in Dayton, OH. She was born on April 4, 1938, in Big Stone Gap, Virginia. Ruth’s journey through life was one marked by love, dedication, and a deep sense of commitment to her family and community.

Ruth’s true joy came from her family. She shared many beautiful moments with her loved ones, creating cherished memories that will forever be held dear in their heats. Ruth is survived by her loving husband, Joe Crist. She leaves behind a legacy of love and devotion that will continue to inspire those who knew her.

Ruth’s memory will be forever cherished by her daughter, Amy Nelson; son, Roger Crist; grandsons, Jacob Nelson, Michael Crist, David Crist; and her great-grandchildren, Ethan, Aiden, Ava, Owen, and Joshua. Each of them carries a piece of Ruth’s spirit with them as they navigate life’s journey.

In the quiet moments when we pause to remember Ruth Crist, let us celebrate a life well-lived-a life defined by love for family and dedication to others. Though she may no longer walk beside us, her presence will linger on in the countless lives she touched with her kindness and grace.

As we mourn the loss of Ruth, let us also be grateful for the time we were blessed to spend in her presence. May we carry forward the lessons she taught us about love, compassion, and resilience. Ruth’s light will continue to shine brightly in the hearts of all who had the privilege of knowing her.
