Ruth was born March 17, 1940 to Chris and Dora Sonderup in Wolbach, Nebraska, the ninth of 10 children. In 1944, they moved to Fullerton where Ruth attended District 41 school and graduated from Fullerton High School in 1957. After graduation, she went to work for the Blossom Shop in Grand Island as a florist. In 1959, she married Bernard Callahan at the First Presbyterian Church in Fullerton. They lived in Grand Island, Denver, and Minnesota. In 1978, she married Lee Bisel in Minnesota. She and Lee moved from Egan, MN to Fullerton to retire in 2004. Lee and Ruth were known for their vegetable and flower gardens and shared their garden bounty with others. They also went to Mexico on vacation 22 times, taking clothing, toys, and essentials including reading glasses to people in need. During his last six years of life, Ruth cared for her good friend, Bernie Jarecke. She lived in Fullerton until 2017, when she moved to Grand Island due to health problems and then to Tiffany Nursing Home and, later, Litzenberg Long Term Care. While there, she planted flowers and vegetables around the patio and helped decorate the home for the holidays. Ruth was a member of First Presbyterian Church in Fullerton, which is now the Fullerton Community Church. She served as a deacon and Service Chairman of the Women’s Association.
