Ruby was born on September 22, 1931, in Beaufort, NC, to the late Grover and Neva Conway. Ruby loved the Lord and lived her life as an example to others. She read her Bible from the time she got up until she went to bed, it was the only book she read. The story of Jesus of Nazareth was most special to her. Maranatha Pentecostal Holiness Church was a source of hope and strength for her as she was a longtime member there.

Her kindness and smile warmed the hearts of those who had the privilege of knowing her. She was a sweet, loving woman who was kind to everyone she met, and she was known to give to anyone in need.

Ruby’s favorite place to eat was Dairy Queen where she always ordered a plain hamburger, and her favorite snacks were honey buns and moon pies.

She is survived by her daughter, Linda Nelson Guthrie and husband Douglas Edward of Morehead City; sisters, Eula Mitchell, Ann LaChance and Carol Mitchell, all of Beaufort; brother, Hildred Conway of Beaufort; 5 grandchildren; 10 great-grandchildren; and 2 great-great-grandchildren.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Harry E. Gaskill Jr.

The family will receive friends from 1 p.m. until 2 p.m. on Friday, December 11, 2020, at Munden Funeral Home. The same safety guidelines will apply.

Flowers are welcome, or memorials can be sent to Maranatha Pentecostal Holiness Church at 130 Airport Rd., Beaufort, NC 28516.
