Mrs. Ruby Helen Malone, age 65

Posted by on May 15, 2014

malone, ruby webThis is the life celebration announcement for Mrs. Ruby Helen Malone, age 65.   Born February 16, 1949 in Taylor County, she was united with her Lord and Savior May 14, 2014.   She is the daughter of the late Herbert and Daisy Patterson.   She was united in marriage to Willard Malone August 8, 1965 and God blessed them with two sons, Marshall and Paul Malone.    She is also survived by two daughters-in-law, Jennifer and Shonda, four grandchildren, Noah, Grace, Anna and Cade Malone, one brother  and 3 sisters.  Mrs. Ruby was preceded in death by both parents, 4 brothers and 3 sisters.

Her first love was being a devout Christian and she loved to attend church and worship with her friends.   Her second love was the grandchildren and family.   She enjoyed family trips, yard sales, scrapbooking, 4-wheeling, attending to her flowers, keeping a pretty yard, work and the country life.   She seemed to never meet a stranger and showed friendship and love to all.

However, the most important aspect of her life was not being ashamed to praise the Lord and witness regardless of where she was.   As a wife, mother, grandmother, sister, daughter and friend, each aspect of life had a special meaning to her and her love for them was as if it were a beam of bright golden sunlight radiating on the lives she touched.

Dear wife, mamma, and grandma you will be forever loved and missed.   Even though you are physically gone from your earthly body, you will never be forgotten and your spirit will live forever, within our hearts, and with the Heavenly Father.   Amen

The family invites you to help fulfill Mrs. Ruby’s request of having standing room only at her farewell ceremony beginning at 2:00 p.m. Sunday at the church.          God Bless
