Ruth A. Fear, 61, of New Castle, formerly of Chicago, passed away Thursday, October 24, 2024, at her home after a 7-year battle with cancer. She was born June 13, 1963, in Chicago, IL to the late George J. and Ellen E. Murray nee Oberfell. Ruth grew up in Bridgeport on the south side of Chicago as the 10th of 13 children. She has always had a fighting spirit. If sheer will and determination were enough, she would have lived forever. Ruth loved fishing, her farm animals and enjoyed time with family, especially during the Thanksgiving holiday. Ruth’s family is her beloved husband Bill Fear, whom she married April 11, 2003. Her loving children: Megan (Jaime), Devon, Jamie and Derek (Julio), her adoring grandchildren: Mari, Isaiah, Ruthie, Mia, Jaime “Poppa” and Gio, dearest siblings June Murray, Georgine Murray, Mike (the late Marjorie) Murray, Mary (Ed) Klus, the late Martin Murray, Patrick Murray (retired CPD), the late Katie Murray, Ellie (Steve) Bartucci, Jack Murray, the late Peggy Finley, Jim (Abby) Murray, George Murray.
