She was born on August 11, 1932, in El Dorado Springs, Missouri, to Clifford and Viola (Vittetoe) Maslen. Ruby was married to Joe Williams, who preceded her in death.
Ruby found joy in life's simple blessings. She enjoyed working in her yard and tending to her flowers. Being loved the outdoors and had a gift for making things grow - both in her garden and in the lives of those around her.

Ruby was also blessed with 7 grandchildren, 9 great-grandchildren, and 2 great-great-grandchildren.
A graveside service will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Thursday, September 28, 2025, at Granby Memorial Park Cemetery.
