Ruth's first volunteer experience took place in Newfoundland, where she relocated to be near her husband, Freeman Burrows, who was serving in the navy. Work at the Red Cross in St. John's marked the beginning of her life of helping others. Soon after World War Two ended, Ruth and Freeman Burrow moved to Belleville along with their two lovely daughters Diane and Evelyn Louise. The Burrows purchased an old Victorian home on Bridge Street. Friends of the family remember Ruth as very giving. She had the gift of making everyone feel welcome. She was a quiet, gentle soul always looking for new ways to help the community.
