Ruby Lee Waters, 81, of Harrison, peacefully left this earth to meet her Savior on Monday, January 1, 2024. She was a member of New Bethel Baptist Church where she taught children's Sunday School for many years. She was a 1960 graduate of Tyner High School. Ruby was employed by Vitafoam for twenty-nine years and later with Hamilton County Department of Education as a Teacher's Assistant for children with special needs. She enjoyed many activities from sewing to gardening to traveling and spending time with her family and friends. However, sitting beside a softball field may have been her best-loved as she cheered on her favorite player and coach.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Fred and Maggie Waters; brothers, Jim Waters and Marvin Waters, and her sister, Diane Gates.
Ruby is survived by her daughter, Connie Waters; brother, Freddie Waters (Linda); sister, Gladys Waters; special great-nieces, Miranda and Zoe; great-nephew, Tucker, as well as many cousins, nieces and nephews.
The family will receive friends on Saturday, January 6, 2024 from 3 p.m. – 8 p.m. at New Bethel Baptist Church, 8740 Harrison Bay Rd, Harrison, TN 37341. There will also be a visitation on Sunday, January 6, 2024 from 1 p.m. – 2 p.m. at the church. A funeral service will follow at 2 p.m. with Pastor John Dekle officiating.
