Ruth Card
Ashby was born to Joseph Y. and Pearl Christiansen Card in 1917,
and raised in Cardston, Alberta, Canada. After attending the
local schools, she went to Salt Lake City, where she studied
at the School of Nursing of the L.D.S. Hospital in Salt Lake
City and the University of Utah, obtaining her R.N. (registered
nurse) license. She then attended Brigham Young University in
Provo, and became school nurse there. It was there she met and
married
William Cropper Ashby, son of Robert L. and Hannah Ashby, of
American Fork, Utah. Will had just returned from a mission to
France and had come to B.Y.U. to finish a master's degree. They
have five children, and she currently (2008) lives in the family
home in Chattanooga, Tennessee, close to her son and his wife.
In her own words, "My eternal companion
graduated from mortality in the year 2000. Now that I am 91,
and we have 24 grandchildren and 40 great-grandchildren, my love
for this wonderful posterity has motivated me to collect stories
of faith and courage from the past and from the current generations,
including a four-year-old, for this compilation. May these stories
be a blessing to you and yours as you grow up in a troubled,
unstable world." |
