She was preceded in death by her parents; her brother, Robert Andrews; and her husband, C.W. Keopple Jr. Ruth graduated from Little Rock High School. She was a devoted mother and the epitome of a coach's wife. She supported her husbands' Hall High Warriors and served as the dorm mother for the Razorbacks during the Ken Hatfield years.
