Ruth Cutler Williams Tate was the wife of Arthur Child Tate, brother of my stepfather, Norman Tate. This painting image was shared by her son, Chris.
Ruth was born in Kearny, NJ on November 7, 1915, and passed away on September 8, 1976.
My mother painted her portrait, judging from which she was quite beautiful. I suspect that this portrait may have been painted from a photograph, after Ruth's passing.
