Ruth Elizabeth Burlock Kenison, 72, of Newburgh, NY, passed
away on July 22, 2023. Born on July 27, 1950, in Berlin, NH,
Ruth was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and
friend. Family was of utmost importance to Ruth, and she
cherished the time spent together with her loved ones.
Friday nights were dedicated to family dinners, where
laughter filled the air, creating precious memories that
will be forever treasured. Ruth had a passion for knitting
and was known for her exceptional skills. She poured her
heart into creating beautiful sweaters, hats, gloves, and
baby outfits, leaving behind a legacy of warmth and love.
Each piece she crafted will be cherished and serve as a
reminder of her talent and the love she shared. Ruth leaves
behind her beloved husband, Jerry Kenison, and their
children, Ryan Kenison, Eileen Kenison, Amy Mackenzie, Dana
Kenison (Brian Mennerich), and Jerry Kenison Jr. She was a
doting grandmother to Cody Kenison, Tyler Kenison, and Lyla
Mackenzie. Ruth is also survived by her sister, Sandra
Kenison and her lifelong friend, Nessie Ellish. She was
preceded in death by her parents, Wilford (Pete) and
Jeannette Burlock, and her sister, Martha Caruso. A memorial
service will be held at a later date in Jefferson, NH, to
honor and remember Ruth's life. Ruth Elizabeth Kenison will
be dearly missed by all who knew her. Her love for family,
laughing, and her warm presence will forever live on in the
hearts of those she touched.
