Ruth A. (Moore) Craig
Ruth A. (Moore) Craig, of Quincy, died peacefully on June 15, 2014, at home surrounded by her loving family.
Born and raised in Roslindale, she lived in Quincy for the past 58 years. Like so many in her generation, her values were formed at an early age. As a young girl, she saw five of her older brothers leave home to serve in the Armed Forces during World War II, and felt very fortunate to have them all safely return home.
This appreciation of family was always present when raising her own family. She made each and every one of her own children and grandchildren feel special. She will be truly missed by all of them.
Beloved wife of 64 years of the late Arthur J. Craig. Devoted Mother of Kathleen Soter and her husband Joseph of Dorchester, Arthur J. Craig, Jr. of Kingston and Patricia Craig, Scott Craig, Sandra Craig and Andrew Craig, all of Quincy. Also survived by her loving grandchildren: Joseph, James, Natalie, Alison, Emily and Colleen.
Funeral Services and interment were private.
Funeral arrangements were made by Dolan Funeral Homes, Milton.

Dear Ma, you are the best mother anyone could ever ask for. I am a very proud daughter to have a mother like you. I love you more than you could possibly know and miss you terribly. My heart has once again been broken. You were always so caring and kind and thoughtful to us all. You and Dad are my best friends and we shared so many great times together. You and Dad will always be in my heart forever. Love and miss you! Till we meet again my dear sweet Ma.
dear nana, I miss you every day. I’ll always miss coming over after school, cooking with you, talking about everything whether it was about school, friends, boys, or even how much the movies cost in the forties hehe 🙂 I’ll miss going out with you on Saturdays, and coming over randomly just to say hello and spend time with the coolest, sweetest nana a girl could ever ask for. I’ll miss the sound of your voice singing and humming around the house, I’ll miss feeding the birds with you, and I’ll miss watching the golden girls, I love lucy, and old movies with you. Things will never be the same without walking in the house and having you call me hun bun, your girlfriend, your baby. Every school assignment that talked about your hero I always chose you. You will always be my hero, my role model, and my favorite person. I will always get a kick out of you, and will miss all the times we’ve laughed so hard together with tears streaming down 🙂 I love you so much nana, and I will always miss you, and cherish the time we had together. <3
