Ruth was born in the state of Maine on
September 3, 1926, to Edward and Libby
Gordon. The next to the youngest of five
children, she had a very strict Baptist
upbringing. After graduating high school in
1944, Ruth was recruited by the government to work for the
U.S. Department of Treasury in Washington, D.C. It was
there that she met a man from Midland, Walter “Red” Dodd,
who was serving in the U.S. Navy. They married in May,
1945, and three days later Walter left on a volunteer mission
over the Burma Road. It was eight months before she saw
her husband again.
The Dodds eventually were blessed with two children. Their
daughter, Lana Cooley, lives in Midland, and their son, Greg
Dodd, lives in Lubbock with his wife, Dixie. Ruth has four
grandchildren and four great grandchildren.
In 1966, Walter and Ruth studied the Scriptures with a
North “A” elder, “Chief” Wallace, and were soon baptized.
Ruth taught two and three year olds in Bible Classes for
seventeen years, and she so much enjoyed the eagerness
to learn and the love of little children that age. Walter served
as a deacon for approximately the same length of time.
Music has always been a part of Ruth’s life. Age has slowed
her fingers on the piano, and, when it comes to her singing
voice, as Solomon said, the “pipes are rusty.” But Ruth still
tries – just recently she impressed four young men from the
Op Camp program by performing on her keyboard when they
visited her home.
Ruth’s husband, Walter, passed away on October 17, 1995.
But with God’s help, she carries on. Always thankful for
adding her to Christ’s Church, Ruth appreciates all the
brothers and sisters in Christ who have loved and
encouraged her and Walter through the years. As the
final verse of the old hymn, “How Sweet, How Heavenly”
puts it, “Love is the golden chain that binds.”
