Record ID number: MH:IF18793 Shared note: Obit: Ruby Lee Pylant New Moore Obit: Ruby Lee Pylant New Moore <p>Ruby Lee Moore, of Iredell, TX passed away in Meridian Manor Nursing Home on Friday, June 9, 2006 . Services were held at Rutledge-Jones Funeral Home, with burial in the Erath Gardens of Memory. Bro. Bill Schibler officiated. Moore was born March 5, 1908, to William Oscar and Mary Jane Cotter Pylant at their home near Iredell. In 1909, Mr. Pylant purchased a farm on the Bosque River, TX about one mile north of the place where Ruby was born. Members of the Pylant family have occupied the farm continuously since 1909. Family members said that she was a hard working farm girl and the family moved to Iredell TX in 1924. She attended the Fairview and Iredell Schools and worked in the family grocery and hardware store until she and J.G. New were married in 1926. One daughter, Lena Rivers, was born on Oct. 26, 1927, in Carlton. J.G. was fatally injured in a work accident in San Angelo TX in 1929 and her daughter passed away in 1977. On Sept. 8, 1930, She married Ervin Willie Moore in Marietta, Okla. They initially lived at Chalk Mountain, raising crops with Ervin’s father. In 1932, the couple moved to New Mexico to homestead some land near Roswell/Dexter. After about two years of this, they returned to “good old Texas†for the rest of their lives. They moved to the Pylant farm in 1935 to begin share cropping and purchased the farm in 1938. They also had a large chicken and egg operation as a means for obtaining extra income. Purchases were always made in cash as funds became available. In 1966, the couple built a new modern home on the same location as the original house. They did much of the work themselves and hired some additional “good†help. Beams were bolted, rather than typically nailed joints, making nothing but first class materials and excellent workmanship used in the construction process. Due to hard work and the onset of arthritis, Moore’s knees began to show severe deterioration in the 1970s. Crutches became a necessity by 1980. In 1984, both knees were replaced but neither of the metal replacements proved successful. As a result, crutches became her permanent partners until 2005. During her working years, she had her own tractor with an attached cultivator and worked beside her husband. They were a perfect working team. As years passed, even though she was unable to continue working in the fields along with her husband, she drove their pickup to the fields where he worked so she could observe the activity. He preceded her in death on Aug. 16, 2000. She continued to remain at home on the farm after his death for four and a half years, doing her own cooking, cleaning laundry, and other chores. Following several falls and on some occasions when she could not get up to call for help, she decided she needed to go to a nursing home. She had been a resident of Meridian Manor Nursing Home since April 11, 2005. Moore is survived by several nieces, nephews, and numerous other relatives and a host of loyal and helpful neighbors and friends. In lieu of flowers it is suggested that donations be made to the church or charity of ones choice. Funeral services were under the direction of Rutledge-Jones Funeral Home. |
