Ruby Bland Leigh Orgain Growing up, Ruby evidently was not known as a "natural born cook." She was reared in a home guided by deep religious principles. Ruby was careful with her pennies and emphasized that "idle spending was unknown to my pocketbook." A girl with many friends she was referred to as our "sympathetic Ruby." She married on October 25, 1906, in Washington, DC to Albert Marcellus Orgain, Jr. She had two sons and a daughter. Parke Leigh was the only daughter of a Founder and followed in her mother's footsteps by becoming a ZTA. Mrs. Orgain's home is in Dinwiddie, Va and her heart-warming messages contribute much to our Themis. Ruby Leigh Orgain is the only secretary the Founders ever chose and she had been their spokesman since Shirley Kreason Strout called them together to organize in 1924. Mrs. Orgain celebrated her 100th birthday on December 4, 1979.
