The Mears Family
This page is in memory of my mother-in-law, Ruby Mears. She left us October 10, 1997. Ruby was born on February 26, 1926, in the state of Kentucky. She worked at Revere Copper and Brass in Clinton, Illinois, until she retired at age of 62. She was married to Howard Mears for 50 years. They both enjoyed camping on the weekends and visiting with friends and family. She really looked forward to Christmas time.

Ruby's first great granddaughter put a sparkle in her eye. She always smiled when talking about Brenna. Brenna is the daughter of Tonya (granddaughter) and Jeff Allen.
