A beautiful Kentucky belle, loving daughter, sister, wife, mother, and grandmother, Ruby James Stearns Montgomery went home on Thursday, November 17, 2016. Ruby gave unconditional love and support to her three children Hewitt, Jim, and Carola, and their spouses Ki and Gail. She was wise and wonderful grandmother “Uh-Ma” to Erin, Emily, Julia, Nicholas, and Kristin. She was also a caring “grandmom” to their spouses Brent and Jim.
A friend of many, she gave warmth and attention to all. She was a strong, classy, resilient woman who set positive examples for living. Ruby had a lifelong passion for learning about the world, art, and literature. She was an avid traveler and strong hiker, sharing many adventures with her family. We were blessed to share life with her, and are happy she is reunited with others she loves. We love you Mom!
Cremation was selected. A celebration of Ruby’s life will be held in the spring.
