Ruth M. Catron, 91, of Somonauk passed away Monday, May 27, 2024, at Valley West Hospital in Sandwich. She was born January 18, 1933, in Waterman, IL, the daughter of Carmel and Ruth (Firkins) Suddeth. She married Robert Catron on July 29, 1951, in Rollo, IL. Ruth worked at the Leland Bowling Alley, CTS Knights, and The Open Door. She enjoyed horses and watching her favorite teams play, The Bulls, The Bears, and The Cubs. Ruth’s philosophy was “there’s always room for one more,” she would lovingly take in people and animals that needed a home. Ruth greatest joy was vacationing with her daughters.

She is survived by her children, Penny (Bruce) Sohm, Cindy (Frosty) Farley, Kenny (Patricia) Catron, and Robert “Jim” (Jane) Catron; nine grandchildren; twenty-two great grandchildren; four great great-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband; her sister, Frances Goodwick; her brother, Charles Suddeth.
