She attended school in Hayes until the 7th grade then transferred to Bell City High School graduating in 1962. She was a member of the Hayes First Baptist Church all her life and enjoyed attending church as often as she could. Ruth attended Sowela awhile until she met Nelson, therefore LOVE overruled. She never worked outside of the home but always volunteered to help with community, church or cemetery projects. She also loved her friends/company very much. Left to cherish her memory, daughter, Jackie Holmes (Chris, who she loved very dearly because he always treated her like a mother not an in-law) of Hayes; 2 grandsons, Scot Trahan of Lake Arthur and Donovan Holmes; brothers, Ronnie Fontenot (Tina), Mickey (Martha), Lynn (Lisa); sister, Rhonda Fontenot (Wayne); host of nieces and nephews whom she treasured and all her sister-in-laws and brother-in-laws whom meant the world to her. She is preceded in death by her husband of 51 years Nelson Trahan; son, Scooter / Scott Nelson; parents; in-laws, Steve and Fannie (who treated her more like a daughter); siblings, Larry James, Savan and Susie.
