Ruth
Denning
 Ruth
was my mother's first cousin and my first cousin once removed. I am
creating
this page simply because Ruth was a very special person who deserves to
be remembered. I want people to find at least one site about her when
they
search the Internet for her name. I hope that someday one of her closer
relatives will create a more detailed tribute to her.A brief life In Quest of Beauty Ruth was
killed in an automobile
accident Feb. 28, 1931, at the age of 16. She was a spiritual
person
who loved nature and beauty and who wrote about these subjects as well
as about her family and friends. In Quest of Beauty, a
compilation
of her poems, essays, and short stories, was published after her death.
The book was edited by a member of the Joliet (Ill.) Township High
School
English Department and dedicated to Ruth by members of the class of
1932.
