Obituary

Ruth Meyer Ware, 102, McAlpin, FL passed away on Friday, September 8, 2023. The Baltimore, Maryland-born native moved to McAlpin in 1986 from Jacksonville, FL, and was a member of Pinemount Baptist Church. Ruth was a homemaker who loved to crochet especially for her children and Grandchildren. She loved to work at church to help with the Operation Christmas Child boxes sewing items to go in the boxes. She also taught Sunday School in her younger years. She was famous for her mashed potato candy and her bite-size oatmeal cookies that she loved to bake for the children at church. She would always take some to her Grandchildren when she would visit them. Her husband was a career Marine, and they spent many years of their married life living on military bases, where she was in charge of the family when he was deployed overseas.  She was a very encouraging person who was happy and smiling all the time.

Mrs. Ware is survived by her daughters: Patricia R. Fennell (Dess), McAlpin, FL, Laura L. Glover (Rex), Micanopy, FL; daughter-in-law: Margy Roye Short; seven grandchildren: June Mahan (Mike), Jack Ware (Angie), James Ware, Dess Fennell, III (Mellisa), Staci Greaves (Stephen), Luke Glover (Bethany), Ruthie Tait (Justin); eighteen great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandchild. She is preceded in death by her husband: Sergeant Major John N. Ware and son: John B. Ware.
