Ruth Hinchliffe
Ruth Carol "Roosty" Hinchliffe, 67, of North Little Rock passed away Wednesday, February 20, 2013.
Roosty was born in Houston, Texas. She graduated from LaGrange High School and McNeese State University in Lake Charles.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Willanna Holton Hinchliffe and Reginald Hinchliffe
A celebration of life will be held 2:00 p.m., Saturday at Friendly Chapel Church 116 S. Pine, North Little Rock. Burial will be at a later date in Thornton, TX.
