Ruby Hansen Obituary

Ruby Darlene Hansen (Nonnie), age 79, was born November 6, 1929 in Faith, South Dakota, and passed away September 18, 2009 in Willows, California.
At the age of 17, Darlene boarded a train to California in search of "the good life". Here she found a country life filled with many good times. A homemaker for many years, Darlene always had a positive outlook on life. She retired as a clerk from Ed Flowerdew, Inc. dba Chevron in 1996. She adored her grandchildren and fostered their distinctly different personalities. She will be sorely missed by those who knew and loved her.
She was preceded in death by daughter, Linda Stover; sisters Betty Paise, Marge Peckham and Virginia Wise; brothers Carl, Billy, and John Peck. She is survived by sisters Jenny King, and Molly Albertsen; brothers Bob and Doug Hill; sons Doug Stover, Marty (Julie) Hansen, Philip (Karen) Hansen, and Gary (Nancy) Hansen; daughters Susan (Gary) Petersen and Cis Stover; grandchildren Chance, R. J., Rachel, and Jared Hansen, Kristen and Chad Stover, Misty (Bohme) Santos, Shana (Hansen) Robertson, and numerous nieces, nephews and great grandchildren.
Services will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, September 26, 2009 at the Willows Christian Church, 200 S. Plumas, Willows, CA.

My Aunt Dean was a strong women and a great Aunt. She never judged any of her loved ones. She accepted all of her family no matter if we had flaws. She supported family in whatever choices they made. She will be surely missed and forever in our hearts and memories. I hope you she is enjoying her reunion with all of our loves ones that have passed.
