Ruth Gibison (King)

Ruth Gibison of Warminster died peacefully surrounded by her loving family on Friday, February 21, 2020 at the Rose Garden at Ann’s Choice.  She was 87.

Born in Philadelphia, Ruth was the beloved wife of the late Clarence J. Gibison, the daughter of the late Nelson C.L. and Euphemia Eddowes King, and the sister of the late Euphemia Spier.
