WATERBURY- Sarah Ruth Huber, 92, passed away peacefully Thursday, August 11, 2016, at her home surrounded by her loving family.

She was born November 11, 1923 in Findlay, Ohio daughter of the late Rev. Benjamin and Sarah Ruth Kossack.

Mrs. Huber graduated from Temple University in 1943 as a Registered Nurse. She worked in hospitals in Philadelphia, New York City, and Waterbury before focusing on raising her three children. Later, she returned to nursing doing primarily private duty. She was a member of the Bunker Hill Congregational Church, and the Waterbury Garden Club. In her free time she was an avid gardener, and amateur painter. Sarah loved art, square dancing, nature, crafts, and walking her faithful companion “Corky” on The Greenway in Middlebury. For many years she volunteered at the Safe Haven Thrift Shop in Southbury.

Sarah is survived by her two sons Craig and his wife Linda Huber of Alpharetta, GA, and Barry and his wife Barbara Huber of Plymouth; her daughter Cindy and her husband Mike Scannell of Middlebury; a brother Benjamin and his wife Connie Kossach of Mt. Jewett, PA; grandchildren Peter and his wife Kathleen Scannell of Newtown, Christopher Scannell of Stamford, Ashley and her husband Jesse Caron of Bethany, and Craig and his wife Desiree Spinner of Osterville, MA; several great grandchildren, and nephews; and her dear friend Marcea Morgan.
