She was born on September 30, 1942, in Pleasant Hope, Missouri, to the late Sam Boatman and Opal Greathouse Boatman. She was always a lady, with Christ and her family being the true loves of her life. Ruby once wrote "Through my Trials and sadness in my life, it is such a joy to know whatever comes my way, God is always beside me thru it all and will never leave my side.” She was a member of the First Baptist Church in Rogers, Arkansas, and she loved her church family deeply. Ruby was a loving wife, caring mother and adoring grandmother. She was a lady of many talents, including shopping avidly and sewing beautifully, but her greatest gift was her love of family and friends. Ruby was a diligent worker at home, but she used this gift in the sales profession as well. Most recently, she worked at Kohl's Department store in Rogers in the jewelry department. She also sold jewelry for Rice Jewelers in Rogers, and she spent many years serving customers at Freddie's Pharmacy. Ruby was preceded in death by her parents; one sister, Huba Cruse; and one nephew, John Tucker. Ruby is survived by a treasure trove of people who loved her including her husband, J.
