Ruth Rebecca Hanna May Grieve

September 9, 1931 – November 29, 2024

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Ruth Rebecca Hanna May Grieve (nee: Comrie) on Friday, November 29th, 2024, at the age of 93, at Muskoka Shoes in Gravenhurst, Ontario.

Ruth was the loving wife to the late James U. Grieve for 73 years and a devoted mother to James Grieve (Leanne Grieve), Kenneth H. Grieve, and Darlene Traficanti (Scott Traficanti). She was a proud grandmother to Marlee Martel (Douglas MacKillop), James W. Grieve (Melissa Grieve), Derek C. Grieve (Michelle Grieve), Jessica Brotherstone (Bob Brotherstone), and Michelle Grieve (Garrett Palmer). She was also a beloved great-grandmother to Zachary Martel, Zoe Martel, Alexis McNutt, Hailey Grieve, Olivia Grieve, and Stella Grieve, and a cherished great-great-grandmother to Andrew Brotherstone, Evelyn Palmer, and Dawson Palmer.

Ruth was a dear sister to Florence Aitchison (nee: Comrie) and Stuart Comrie. She will be greatly missed by her extended family and friends.

Those we love don’t go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard,
but always near,
Still loved, still missed
and very dear.
