Notes |
- She loved growing up on a farm and her "cotton-picking days" in Honey Grove.
After raising her six girls mostly on her own, Ruth met and married the love of her life, Derrell Douglas, in 1975.
"Mama" loved her six girls and encouraged them to have strong bonds between themselves no matter what happened.
"Grandma Ruthie" dearly loved all her grandchildren. "Ruthie" spent the last nine years of her life caring for and loving her youngest granddaughter, Taylor. Taylor affectionately called Ruth "My Ruthie." Taylor was the light of Ruthie's life.
