Ruby Alice Brown Thompson, 90, of Tyler was born in Jayton, Texas on May 7, 1926. She grew up with her twelve siblings in Troup and attended Whitehouse Schools. Alice was the strongest, soft person you would ever meet. Saying she was loved by several hundred would not be an exaggeration. She was a shining light.
