Birthday Celebration for Ruth Gembe

  • Waynesboro Historical Society 138 West Main Street Waynesboro, PA, 17268 United States (map)

Ruth Gembe, Carl Besore, and Robert Ringer review Waynesboro’s history circa 1998

Some people make history. Others preserve it, Ruth has done both. You’re invited to a celebration of history and heart!

The Waynesboro Historical Society invites you to join us in honoring Ruth Gembe, our beloved author, researcher, and lifelong keeper of local stories, as she turns 86. 

For decades, Ruth has devoted her time, pen, and passion to preserving the chapters of Waynesboro’s past. Now, it’s our turn to write a joyful page in her own story.
