Heidinger, Ruth Age 102 died peacefully in her sleep on 9/27/2015. She is survived by her children Karl (Donna Kay), Carol (Bill Beadie), Jon (Janet) and Guy (Donna Jean). Also survived by nine grandchildren and eleven great grandchildren. Preceded in death by her husband Harry and one grandson. Ruth loved nature, animals and birds at her lake home near Pequot Lakes and she shared this love with her children and grandchildren. She was an excellent cook, voracious reader and fluid writer. Her faith defined her. She was an elder at Christ Presbyterian Church at one time and then a member of the Log Evangelical Church in Crosslake. A small family memorial service will celebrate her life in the chapel at the Episcopal Church Home in St. Paul. Special thanks to the loving staff at ECH and St. Croix Hospice.
