April 16, 1928 — July 10, 2020
Ruby Nuckles Coleman, 92, of Rustburg died Friday, July 10, 2020 at her home surrounded by her family.

She is survived by her children, Marty Coleman and his wife Carolyn, Rhonda Smith and her husband Charles, Tim Coleman and his wife Christy all of Rustburg, Cindy Beam and her husband Greg of Rogers, Arkansas, and Sandy Carr and her husband Kent of Rustburg; seven grandchildren, 14 great grandchildren and two great-great grandchildren.
