Obituary of Ruby Marie Ann Mae Miller

Ruby Marie Ann May Miller (38) resident of Worley, ID passed away at her home on July 20, 2018.  She was born to George Manybears and Geraldine Miller on September 4, 1979 in Spokane, WA.  Ruby grew up on the Coeur d’ Alene Reservation.  She also spent quite a bit of time in Yakima, WA.

Ruby obtained her GED before she went to work for the Coeur d’ Alene Tribal Casino in 1998.  She worked in the cage, on the floor, and in security leaving the casino just shy of 20 years of service.  Ruby married Anthony Allen in Coeur d’ Alene, ID.  They made their home in Worley, ID and started their family. The marriage later ended in divorce.

Anytime visitors came by Ruby’s home, they were welcomed with open arms and a lot of food.  She loved cooking and entertaining for her friends and family, and she was very good at it.  Ruby was a beautiful girl who loved living life and liked her kool-aid extra sugary.  She also enjoyed watching movies, listening to music, and road trips to visit family.  She loved music so much she would write down the lyrics to her favorite songs.
