Obituary

Ruth Burdekin Bromwich our beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, passed away peacefully at her home in Frisco Texas at the age of 85 on February 23, 2018. She was the daughter of Robert and Mabel (Booth) Burdekin born in Jamaica, New York. Ruth married her childhood sweetheart William Herman Bromwich, Jr. on June 18, 1955, and raised their children and lived for 30 years in Greenwich, Connecticut. Throughout their nearly 63 years of marriage, Ruth and Bill enjoyed also living in New York, Alabama, Vermont, Massachusetts, Florida, New Hampshire, Minnesota, and Texas. Ruth’s true passions included family, friends, entertaining, bridge and story telling — where colorful details always superseded factual content!  She was an intensely devoted wife, mother, friend and a dedicated volunteer. Fun, spirited, soft-hearted and generous, her spunky personality and direct style made her one of a kind, instantly likable, warm and memorable. Preceded in death by both her parents, brother Robert, sisters Marion, Harriet and Mabel. Survived in death by beloved husband Bill “the Saint”; sister Joan Allan; daughters Cheryl (Jeff) Murphy and Dana (Michael) Howe; grandchildren Andrew (Kristen) Murphy, Sean (Kristen) Murphy, Connor Howe, Ryan Howe, James Murphy and Lindsey Howe; great-grandsons Kieghan Murphy and Kinsler Murphy. Service will be held on Thursday, March 1 at 11:00am at Grace Avenue United Methodist Church, Frisco, Texas. In lieu of flowers, memorial can be made to American Lung Association or the charity of your choice. Arrangements under the direction of: ARIA Cremation Service and Funeral Home 19310 Preston Road Dallas, Texas 75252 214-306-6700

    I am so very sorry to hear of Ruth’s passing. Growing up in Greenwich with the Bromwich girls, I was lucky enough to know Bill and Ruth through church. Very special people. My love to Bill and the entire family. Rest in peace, Ruth. You were a wonderful lady.

"If I could give 6 stars I would. Aria made a difficult easier to deal with by basically taking care of everything in an efficient but very empathetic manner. I can speak highly enough of Dusty Martin, who helped us with all of the planning and logistics. He was incredibly understanding and helpful."

"Nothing prepares you for the grief you go through when losing a child. I called this funeral home at 2:00 am broken and could barely talk. The amount of compassion and empathy they showed me immediately let me know I found the right place to cremate my son. I cannot thank them enough for their professionalism, SINCERE concern, and commitment to making sure my son was honored in the most respectful way. I hope this Funeral home values her as much as my family and I do."

"I can’t say enough about how helpful and professional Dusty Martin, the funeral director at the Aria Cremation location on NW Highway has been. From my initial call, he was kind and informative. My friend died at home while on hospice and she was picked up in about an hour after receiving the call from the hospice nurse. The person who arrived to pick her up was also very professional/respectful and allowed us to take as much time with her as we wished. When I met with Dusty the next day about arrangements, he explained the process and options available without being pushy or trying to “sell” extras. Throughout the process, he kept me informed and, for example, was careful to be certain I understood the cost of the obituary I wanted and offered some options for reducing that cost if I wished. When I stopped by for another reason and started talking about some of the problems I was having with the pictures and media I hoped to use at a memorial lunch I was planning, he not only listened patiently but offered technology advice and let me use his personal media player. I have had experience arranging cremations for four others using two other local companies, and this experience with Dusty at Aria has been by far the best one I have had."

"My Daddy’s service and our family experience at Aria Northwest Highway was truly blessed. Funeral Director Dustin Martin is the kind of person that you would like to see on a more regular basis – but in his industry – you hope to not see him that often. That being said – THANK YOU DUSTIN for your unending kindness, compassion and friendship through the process. Meeting you and discussing Dallas History, Find A Grave and my Dad’s lifelong contributions to the great City of Dallas was simply wonderful! In memory of my dad James A. Dodd, Sr. – I want to personally thank you and let you know that you made everything better in that moment. Your calling to “Be There” is spot on. Aria has a one in a million guy in you! Bling Blinky of TEXAS Shout Out: God Bless You!!"
