Book Description
Ruth Woods: A Plump Little Matron with Wrinkles is Dustin Lowe's attempt to bring his great grandmother's untold story to life. Ruth Woods began the Richwood Civic Center located in Richwood, Ohio as a way to house the town's rapidly growing aging population. The Center hosted the first tetanus clinic in Ohio and has since expanded to include transportation services, entertainment, and outing events for the community. Told through the stories and memories of her daughter, Anita Davis, the biography focuses on Ruth's cheerful and hospitable life and her concern for the senior citizens in her community. At a time when very few communities began to think about services for retirees, Ruth's dream became a reality when she took up the responsibility of creating housing for the area's seniors.
