Wetherell met and married in 1939, as of his death on June then 23rd of 2015, they had celebrated just over 75 years of marriage. He worked several jobs in around Oklahoma until upon her urging, that he should apply to take a welding proficiency exam for Dow Chemical that she saw in the news paper there.

He passed that one also and became certified in a few specialties and relocated the family here, early to the mid 1950's Ruth cannot be mentioned without Curtis, eaches lifetime of success was a result of the others devotion, efforts and love. They were blessed with two children, Curtis Otto and Shirley Ann Wetherell. They're lives also intertwined with so many other beautiful souls here and dimensions elsewhere. She simply was the bedrock of many lives, allowing those dependent upon and associated with her to also have the opportunity, by her example, to be the salt of the earth and a candle in the wind to individual's hearts looking for home and the paths of success.
