RUBY DELL JOHNSON

April 17, 1940 — November 29, 2024

Ruby Dell Johnson, a radiant soul beloved by all, departed this earthly realm on November 29, 2024. Born on April 17, 1940, in Mount Pleasant, Texas, Ruby’s journey through life became a tapestry woven with laughter, love, and a profound sense of family.

Her bright spirit shone through in her career, where she embarked on a fulfilling path as an Clerk for an insurance company, later transforming the mornings of many young scholars as a dedicated bus driver for Dallas County Schools. Ruby was not just a provider of transportation; she became a trusted fixture in the lives of her students, blending responsibility and warmth to ensure they felt safe and valued.

A proud graduate of Doty High School, class of 1959, in McKinney, Texas, Ruby carried the lessons of her education into every interaction. She was outgoing and effortlessly funny, often sparking joy in her surroundings with a quick-witted remark or a shared laugh. Her caring nature was evident in how she embraced her loved ones, consistently putting family first.

Ruby cherished her time spent indulging in her hobbies—whether it was playing a spirited game of spades, diving into the thrill of volleyball, or venturing forth on travels that left her with stories for a lifetime. Those fortunate enough to sit at her table were treated to her culinary prowess, especially her renowned banana pudding, which crafted smiles and satisfied cravings.

In her quiet moments, Ruby could be found engrossed in crossword puzzles or fishing, finding tranquility in the simple pleasures of life. Yet, no joy was greater than that brought by her children and grandchildren, her proudest accomplishments. They were the heartbeat of her existence, and their triumphs were her personal victories.

Ruby’s heart found its final rest in DeSoto, Texas, but the echoes of her laughter and the warmth of her spirit will continue to reverberate through the lives she touched. She is survived by her family, who will carry forward her legacy of love and connection, forever inspired by the vibrant, caring woman she was.

As we celebrate the life of Ruby Dell Johnson, we remember not just the dates that separate her from us but the moments of joy, love, and laughter that have eternally bound her our hearts. Her journey may have concluded, but her spirit shall remain an indelible part of our shared memories, shining brighter than ever in the lives she so dearly cherished.
