Ruth Dorene Haglund

We are deeply sorry for your loss ~ Gunderson-Camacho Funeral Home – Mt. Horeb

Ruth was my mentor/apprentice as a student of the legal secretary program at MATC (nka Madison College). It was 1979, and she was working with Attorney John Gibson. My first law office experience. I have never forgotten it or her. Ruth taught me confidence, largely due to her unbelievably warm smile and infectious laugh. She exuded kindness, patience and an overall sense of humor and love of life. She understood you must give people a chance, and I watched her advocate that very same way for everyone. I was blessed to start my career with her, and because of her, I also mentored MATC students throughout my legal career, giving those students a much-needed chance. Her death leaves me very sad, but more than anything very grateful I had the opportunity to meet and work with her. I’m still working in the legal field, by the way. My sincere condolences for your loss. Annie Schwartz
