It would depend on how she normally referred to him when alive. Given the Russian penchant for using the given name plus patronymic to refer to a person eg. Boris Yeltsin would be referred to as Boris Mikhailovich (I think his father's name was Mikhail) she may have habitually referred to him as "Arthur Ransome" as the nearest she could get to a Russian usage.
