Ruby had a long career with the Social Security Administration and was a long-standing member of the White’s Ferry Road Church of Christ and their Golden Sixties Group. She was a lover of animals, nature, camping and fishing. Some of her cherished memories were the activities and time she shared with family and friends. Her travels brought her happiness, and she spoke of them often as some of her best times.
