It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of previous Elderlink Home Care, Inc. owner, Ruth Pelanne. Ruth owned Elderlink from 1996–2001 before she sold the company to current owner, Karen Moorehead. Ruth, a registered nurse, bought Elderlink after retiring from full-time nursing. She ran Elderlink for over five years with love and a desire to make a difference. Under Ruth’s care, Elderlink grew and thrived. It was a true passion for her.
With Ruth’s passing, the world has lost a very special person—a person who always saw the best in others and traveled through her days with grace, gentleness, and kindness. She will be remembered and thought of often by those of us who were lucky enough to know her. We will be forever grateful for the impact Ruth had on us, on Elderlink, and on the world. Rest in peace, Ruth; you will be missed.
