Ruby Lee Doss, age 88 of Malvern, died Thursday, September 10, 2020 at her home.  She was born on January 13, 1932 in Amity, Arkansas to the late Jim Garner and Luda Gertrude Skates Garner.  Reared and educated in Amity, she graduated with the Amity High School class of 1950.  She married the love of her life, Manuel C. Doss, on December 28, 1950, in Amity, and they moved to Malvern in 1952. In 1957, she and her husband opened Doss Garage, which is still in operation today.  Ruby was a member of First Baptist Church, where she attended the Ruth Sunday School Class.  She loved children and put that love to work by teaching preschool at First Baptist Church for many years.  She loved her family and they enjoyed partaking of the delicious food she prepared for them.  You never saw Ruby without her radiant smile.  That, along with her kindness, will be missed by all who knew her.

She is survived by her husband of nearly 70 years, Manuel Doss; by two sons, Ricky Doss (Theresa), and Dennis Doss (Sherri); her son-in-law, Bob Williams; all of Malvern; a sister, Shirley Potter of Sparks, Nevada; her grandchildren, Jennifer Burks (Andy), Amy Clements (Jeremy), Wendy Folds (J.
