    BISH, Ruth. Ruth Margaret Bish (nee Shoemaker) passed away peacefully with family at her side on October 3, 2013 at the age of 84. Ruth is fondly remembered by daughters Lucille Bish (Bill McAndrew) and Evelyn Bish; grandchildren Bruce McAndrew, Louise McAndrew, Jake White, and Nicole White; and family friend Kim MacIntyre. Predeceased by her husband William (Bill) in 2012.

    A life-long Kitchener resident until her later years when she and Bill moved to Chatham, Ruth was the daughter of Emanuel (Manny) and Lillian Shoemaker. Manny was President of McBrine Luggage for many years. Ruth and Bill met at Kitchener-Waterloo Collegiate. They celebrated their 60th Wedding Anniversary on May 26, 2011.

    Ruth attended Stratford Teachers' College, then taught at several schools in Kitchener. But her joy and true vocation was caring for her husband, children and grandchildren. She celebrated our successes and comforted our sadness, always with calm words and a smile.

    Ruth was active in Holy Cross Lutheran Church, particularly with the Women's Guild. She loved the family cottage at Grand Bend, where she enjoyed swimming, reading on the beach, sunsets on the deck, and "happy hour" with her family and friends.

    Friends may call at the Ratz-Bechtel Funeral Home, 621 King St. W., Kitchener, on Wednesday, October 9 from 2 \endash 4 p.m. and 7 \endash 8 p.m. A further visitation will be held on Thursday October 10 at 10 a.m., with the funeral service at 11 a.m., Pastor Nolan Astley officiating.

    ROCKEL, Paul Passed away suddenly on December 17, 2012 at the age of 85. Beloved husband of Jean, treasured father of Mark Rockel, Jeff (Claudia) Rockel, Dale (Silvia) Rockel, Melanie (Mark) Eberlin, and Todd (Stephanie) Rockel. Cherished grandfather of Amy, Krysta, Steven, Kaleena, Marissa, Danica and great-grandfather of Emerson and Scarlette. Son of the late John and Agnes Rockel and brother of Bruce (Barb) Rockel, and Sylvia (Lawrence McCutcheon) Rockel. Paul spent 18 years at the KW Record during which time he managed to save enough holidays to start building the home they still live in. In 1962 he moved on to United Group of Funds as a mutual fund sales person, winning sales awards within the first six months. In 1968 Paul started Regal Capital Planners, a company that went on to become Canada's largest independent mutual fund dealer, with offices across all of Canada. Paul developed many lasting friendships through his "Regal Family" as he loved to refer to it as. Paul helped his father build the family cottage at Belwood Lake when he was 15 years old during World War II, building it with found wood and second hand nails. He has enjoyed summers there up to the present year, sailing as often as he could. Other passions were flying his plane, and riding his Honda Goldwing up until this past summer. His 5 children, 6 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren gave him great joy. Jean and Paul were married for 61 years and during that time travelled the world, and even managed to enjoy 43 cruises. Paul and Jean square danced together weekly for the last 36 years, something they loved so much. He attended Historic St. Paul's Lutheran Church for his entire life and taught Sunday school for over 30 years. Paul was greatly respected and loved, and will be dearly missed.
