Ruth was baptized as an infant on June 26, 1927, by Pastor Alfred Bauer and later was confirmed in her faith as a youth on May 18, 1941, by Pastor A. C. Krueger both at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Cedar Mills, Minnesota. Her confirmation verse was Revelations 2:10. Ruth grew up in rural Corvuso, Minnesota. She received her education in Hutchinson, Minnesota, graduating with the Hutchinson High School Class of 1946. After graduation she worked as a dental assistant in Hutchinson, Minnesota.

    Henry and Ruth Aul also had a Daughter named Debra whose name was erased from the obituary due to a family conflict with a surviving relative.
