She married Marvin H. Johnson in 1943. She was a full-time homemaker while raising her four children. Later, she worked as a personal caregiver and volunteered through hospice and her church.
She used her seamstress skills until she was 96. Her life-long desire was to honor her Lord and Savior. In her quiet, humble way, Ruby touched many people.
