*****NOW (APRIL 25, 2004) THERE IS A NEW PRODUCTION UNDERWAY: We're being led to do another book which is tentatively entitled: "David Ruffin--The Good Stuff"--subtitled "A Collection of Positive Stories and Good Memories by his Friends and Fans" YES, THAT MEANS YOU; YOU'RE INVITED! Do you want to contribute your story? This time, there will be only good, positive stories and memories from those who knew him to any degree--as long as you can email us a positive story or stories and/or a good memory or memories, it doesn't matter if you only met him once or knew him his whole life; you could even be BLOOD. As long as you can tell it with genuine love, that'll work. Unless you are planning to write a book yourself, this is an opportunity to share--most likely the only one!! Don't know how long it will take to become finished, but it will, in due time.
Some have already happily jumped on the bandwagon. And we have a very special private photo for the cover. It will be awesome!
We' d like to have a chapter (of any length) from each of you if you have enough to fill one. We'll do all the editing, proofreading (content will not be changed), publishing, INVESTING and promoting. You will not be paid and will need to sign off on that, but your name will be at the head of your chapter/section, unless you want to remain anonymous. Neither the cover or inside will not list any single author. (If we can get away with that, and we think we can--will do only if necessary to get an ISBN number; if so, will use fictitious name.)
This project will serve multiple purposes--all good; choose one that works for you! If you want to participate, it doesn't matter much which one you can envision; everyone will probably see a different reason. Nevertheless, collectively the mission will be accomplished and the consciousness of the planet will be elevated, even if only a "pinch". It all helps; it's "all God, so it's all good". What do you think? (All POSITIVE suggestions are appreciated and will be considered).
Thank you for your support of David and please spread the word!

Board...
When I first read the post, I was so excited finally we are going to showcase David in a positive light. Yea, I am going to share all this good information with the Palace and hopefully we will have book to cherish. After inquiry about the post, the person gave me the web site address which led me to Genna Ruffin Site.
My face when to pure excitement to I can't believe she will do this to David's memory. Board, I don't understand how in one breath she can say the man beat the hell out of her and in another breath I want collected short stories of David.
Board, is this hoax?? Does she really believe fans are going to share stories about David to her so she can make money??
I don't know if I should feel sorry for Genna who wants to redeem herself to the public or me thinking O will recant his lies.
Like I said the David Ruffin-Good Stuff is very good initiative, however, I have my doubts about the person who is collecting the memories. If the book is going to be short stories about David's performances and relationships, than I am right there. If the book is going to about person who only claim to fame is having a baby by David, than I will not support with love and money.
This goes back to the little boy who cry wolf.. You can't cry wolf when it is self serving to you. You don't when you are going to need the people who you cry wolf.
Just my observations....

This is another attempt for genna to try to capitalize on David's name. It's more to clean up her image then David's. Her first book mised it's mark. All it did was make the majority of the people that read it mad. So she now wants to write the "good" stuff. Evidently she doesn't know ay "good" stuff because she needs help from other people. What it comes down to is this. Another case of a woman that doesn't know her damn place. Why does genna think it falls to her to write anything about David,other then her own personal memories? Does she really believe she was Mrs. Ruffin? It seems more and more that these girlfriends want or need some kind of recognition. It seems being with David Ruffin was the only life accomplishment they are proud of.  It's sad and it's really pissing me off. I was a girlfriend,and so were the others. All we have left of David is our own personal memories. There is no reason for any of us to think that we have a part in his legacy. Sleeping with a KING doesn't make you a Queen. |

Ditto on everything you've said. Also I think her last book has also messed up any chances her son has to break in the industry. Which I feel is one of the reasons she is trying to make a clean start. Of course his own asstitude and talent plays a part in it as well, but that book didn't help. I am going to have to agree w/Molly on this one, I don't think she has any good memories. Anyway I wonder if she is doing this, because Jimmy is supposibly writing a book, not to mention one of his daughters is writing something. |

I think she's doing this because she needs the "money". Being a ex-girlfriend of David Ruffin doesn't pay well. NOBODY cares that you were one of his women. Sandra and his daughters were colaberating on a book,I don't know were that stands right now. Jimmy also is supposed to have a book. Of course Sandra,his daughters or Jimmy don't need somebody else's memories to write a book about David Ruffin. I don't know WTH told this woman she was a author anyway. Her last book was not well written,and we all know how it was recieved.

Folks need to Get on with their own damn life. Ruffin did. He continued to live until his untimely death. Genna had her shot. She put her life with Ruffin in a book. So now she is being "led" to write another one? Give me a freaking break!!!! Yeah that's what we need another girl friend book. I wonder if Ruffin told her to write another book like he told her to change her name?  ? Hell! Maybe Ruffin gave genna my email address!!!!! I wish somebody would tell her to sit down somewhere. She is far worse then O. And that's bad . Dang! No life having people! |

There is no reason for any of us to think that we have a part in his legacy. Sleeping with a KING doesn't make you a Queen. Thank You der! I have said that many times. Everybody wants to lay claim to a part of his life. It's got to be because he was famous. I'm sure Ruffin wasn't the "Only" man in some of these womes lives, but they ain't talking about any of those no-name men. I think its pitiful cause you are right NOBODY CARES. I am so glad that you decided to keep on living after Ruffin. |
