Ruby Olene Breeden was born in Keevil, Arkansas, one of ten children born to parents Eugene Ray Warford and Minnie Pinell. Ruby will be remembered for her sweet and kind smile, gentle nature, and welcoming everyone in her home. She worked as a kitchen worker for a number of schools/hospitals and as a sales associate. She donated her time at Day Center of Tulsa. Because Ruby was such a giving individual, she would help anybody, caring for many in her family and neighborhood with open arms. She attended church services where praise and worship was her passion. She was especially proud of her family's musical talents and savored the blessing of hearing them perform as often as she could manage, and loved every family visit. Ruby was very pleasant: she never complained about pain or discomfort. A beautiful lady, Ruby will be remembered for her baby blue eyes, red lipstick, polished finger nails and always fixed hair.
Ruby was preceded in death by her husband, Carl Breeden, Jr.; parents; and siblings, Big Vernon Warford, Vernon George Warford, Jerry Warford, Mary Hoobler, and Ruth Compton. She is survived by: siblings, Virginia Ingram (husband Bill), Esta Wesley, Oscar Paul Warford (wife Jean) and Jeannie Lane (husband David); children, Malinda Willis, Karlton Breeden (wife Henrietta) and Roger Breeden; numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-great grandchildren; and a host of nieces, nephews and their families.
