Ruby M. Fritschen

Ruby Fritschen, age 88, passed away September 25, 2022.

She was born in Great Falls, Montana in 1934 to John and Alma Kelleher. Ruby spent many years as a Ward Secretary at the then Columbus Hospital and sewed draperies for local stores in Great Falls. She was married to Andrew Fritschen until his death in 2017.

Ruby leaves behind a son, David; daughters, Barbara (Randy) Sakalis, Mary (Suli) Sarumi, and Peggy (Terry) Brack; a sister, Myrna (Aaron) Hannamann; grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.

One of her greatest joys was watching her grandchildren and great-grandchildren grow up. Ruby had a sense of humor, enjoyed reading, and watching women’s sports on TV. She will be greatly missed.

At Ruby’s request, no services are planned.
