Lenice Chambers

October 21, 1925 — April 5, 2012

Lenice Ruth Keele Chambers, formerly of Forest City, NC, passed away on April 5, 2012 at the Magnolia Lane Nursing Center in Morganton, NC. Born on October 21, 1925, she was the widow of the late Earl Hoyle Chambers.
Ruth was the mother of four young-uns: Award-Winning Actress, Mary Elizabeth Guy; Retired Soap Opera Actress and Professional Model, Constance Lee Burton; Comedian and Doctor of Drugs, Christopher Eugene Chambers; and Author and Miss Teenage Memphis 1971, Belynda Gail 'Stinky' Chambers. Ruth is survived by all four young-uns, twelve grandchildren and twenty-four great grandchildren. Her claim to fame is an intricate crocheted bedspread that she completed after forty years; testing no less than 397 chili recipes; watching every episode of The Andy Griffith Show at least 50 times; and perfecting The Biscuit. She loved music, especially, Elvis' Jailhouse Rock. Ruth read The Bible every morning. She is the main inspiration for Stinky Chambers' memoir, Unraveling Ruth.
