Funeral service for Ruby Lee Boone Carpenter is scheduled for 10 AM Monday, January 12, 2026 in the chapel of Golden Funeral Home with Bro. Tim Post officiating. A time of visitation will be held Monday from 9 AM - 10 AM prior to service.

Mrs. Carpenter, a member of First Baptist Church, passed away Wednesday, January 7, 2026 at the age of ninety-nine. She was such a wonderful lady with a caring and giving heart. Mrs. Carpenter always put others ahead of herself and would be a caretaker to anyone who needed help. She loved her church family and her grand "fur" babies, but her greatest love was her family and her Lord. Mrs. Carpenter would go over and above to make sure others were happy.

She is survived by her daughter, Pam Redden and husband, Chuck; son, Tanny Tully and wife, Ruthie; daughter-in-law, Jennifer Tully Freeman and husband, Todd; stepson, Ricky Carpenter and wife, Wanda; grandchildren, Dr. G.G. Grant, Paige Champion, Brandon Tully, and Matt Tully; great grandchildren, Lake Grant, Hunt Grant, Griffyn Grant, and Nash Champion.

Mrs. Carpenter is preceded in death by her husband, John Travis Tully; husband, Leland Carpenter; son, Mike Tully; sister, Betty Rundell; stepdaughter, Sue Carpenter Roberts; and stepson, Arnold Carpenter.

The family would like to extend a special "thank you" to Dr. Eli Globke for his kindness and care to Mrs. Ruby.
