Whose Road Is It Anyway?

2 years ago

She was welcomed into heaven by her husband, Archie Clinger; her parents, Alvin and Anna Adkins; brothers, William “Jackie”, Earl, Raymond, Ronald, and Marvin Adkins; and one sister, Wilma Rawlins.

Ruia was born in Elliott County, KY on January 20, 1930, and was the eldest of 12 children. She was often heard saying that she was taking care of babies when she was just a baby. Her family meant all the world to her and her passing leaves an ache in all their hearts. Though she traveled, she was never as happy as she was when she was with family. She was a homemaker and never too busy to take time to play games with the children and grandchildren, cook up special meals, shop, and enjoy parties.

A special thank you to SOMC Hospice nurses and caregivers for the time and attention given to Ruia during this difficult time.

Funeral services will be private for the family due to the national health advisories. They will be held at D.W. SWICK-NELSON FUNERAL HOME in Wheelersburg with Pastor Louis Rawlins officiating. Interment will follow at Memorial Burial Park in Wheelersburg.
