Ruby Mott

Ruby Mott, age 79, passed away surrounded by her loving family on Wednesday, February 14, 2018, at Brooklyn Hall Personal Care Home in Mathiston, Mississippi. Funeral services will be 2:00 p.m. Saturday, February 17, 2018, at Friendship Baptist Church on Craig Springs Road with Rev. Dan Robertson officiating. Visitation will be the day of the service beginning at 12:30 p.m. continuing until service time. Interment will follow in Neshoba Baptist Cemetery in Neshoba County, Mississippi.


Ruby was a member of Friendship Baptist Church in Oktibbeha County. She enjoyed being with people; she loved life and loved her family and friends dearly. Also, she very much enjoyed her hobbies of sewing and crocheting; and as her mobility declined, she began to fill her time by creating beautiful adult coloring pictures many of which are frame worthy.

Ruby is survived by her two daughters, Vicky LaBine and husband, Mike, of Tyrone, Georgia; and Kathy Nason and husband, Luke, of Sturgis; and her son, Ricky Mott and husband, Stephen Harry, of Salem, New Hampshire. One of her greatest joys was being “Granny” to her five grandchildren: Hailey Nason, Zach Nason, Brandon LaBine, Michael LaBine, and Canon Mott. She also leaves behind to mourn her passing two sisters, Katherine Coats and Regenia Quinley and husband, Richard, all of Mobile, Alabama. She was preceded in death by her husband, Glyn Mott; her son, Douglas Allen Mott; her parents; her sister, Doris Leachman; and her brother, Bryant Lee Smith.

The family wishes to thank the staff and residents of Brooklyn Hall for making our mother a member of their family. Memorials may be given to Brooklyn Hall Personal Care Home Activities Fund, 23283 MS-15, Mathiston, MS 39752.
