Ruby was born on June 24, 1946, to Leroy and Jewel Plunkett Antee. She peacefully departed this life on October 14, 2026, surrounded by her loving family.

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, David Franklin Linder, and her siblings Roy Antee, Helen Paul, Florean Wrather, and Ethel Harrison.

Her memory lives on through her children, David Linder, Jr., Roy Linder and wife Jeanie, and Tammy Nettles and husband Carl, along with her 8 grandchildren, 17 great-grandchildren, and 1 great-great-grandchild. She is also survived by her siblings Willie Antee, Norman Antee, Barbara McHand, Jerry Antee, Jackie Antee, and Troy Antee, and many cherished nieces, nephews, and friends.

Pallbearers honoring Ruby will be Cory Nettles, Shane Antee, John Little, and David W. Linder, with Ethan Linder serving as an honorary pallbearer.

Ruby's warmth and kindness will be deeply missed, leaving a lasting legacy of love in the hearts of all who knew her.
