Born in Highland Park, Michigan, she came to this area in 2004 from Maryland.  Ruthie was a retired secretary. She was a member of the First Baptist Church at The Villages. An accomplished painter, Ruthie worked in China painting, Swedish Rosmaling and produced a lot of decorative art. She leaves behind to cherish her memory, her beloved husband of 60 years, Russ, sons, Stephen Gotberg, Glenn Gotberg and Douglas Gotberg, her sister, Dee Ofiesh, brother, Jim Porter, her 7 precious granddaughters, Alexandria, Sophie, Rachel, Linnea, Kariana, Krystyna and Gracie, and her great granddaughters Brooke and the very anxiously awaited Freya Ruth, who is due anytime.

    Ruthie was one of the sweetest ladies I have ever known. She always showed concern for others even when she was so I'll herself. She will be dearly missed.
