Ruby as a little girl was always curious about many things. She was always saying let me put on my thinking cap and how she would go outside and start looking all around on the ground and she would find either money are something of some value of some kind and even this christmas david had asked her if she could still put on her thinking cap and she ask if he wanted her to go outside and look to see if she could so she went outside and found $10.00. Ruby was gifted of many talents; she loved to dance and sing to all kinds of music. Ruby loved to climb trees and was always getting into trouble and blaming it on her little brother. Ruby had a few nick names :tinker bell, little ruby and little bit, those names were used around the house a lot. Ruby loved the outdoors and when she would come down to visit she would pitch a tent and did her cooking outside and never wanted to impose on anyone. She played the drums in high school and she took acerbates in elementary. Ruby even got a black eye playing soft ball with the boys and was a great left fielder. But the biggest catch of all was her catfish. Ruby got her red cross swimming permit for life guard. She worked as a florist her talents with her hands was beyond imagination. For ruby christmas was her favorite time of year as a child was always looking for things around the house to give her little brother and middle sister and if she find a tree branch cut from the christmas tree she would help sister and brother decorate it and put it in hers and her sisters room. Ruby loved to go to see stock car races and speed races with her husband.

Ruby became not only a sister but a friend she could make you laugh from Tennessee to Houston back up to Nebraska and all the way back to Texas.
Ruby knew her Lord Jesus Christ, she was baptized at the age 10 in Dallas at West Illinois Church of Christ.

The family could all write a book about their little gypsy and their treasured memories deep within their hearts. But most of all this past christmas and her playing santa claus and wanting all her family to be at peace with each other and love one another and to show it.

Precious memories of her life will always be with us all.
