Ruby Joy Edwards-Kerr

September 16, 1952  –  July 26, 2026
A Gentle Life. A Beautiful Legacy.

Gardener. Artist. Teacher. A gentle soul who tended everything she touched — soil, canvas, and hearts alike.

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
Philippians 4:13

Her Story

A Life Rooted in Love

Ruby Joy Edwards-Kerr lived a quiet, radiant life — rooted in faith, family, and the things she loved to grow. She was a gardener who found peace with her hands in the soil, an artist who saw beauty in small and simple things, and a teacher who gave generously of her patience and wisdom. She belonged to Spanish Town Seventh Day Adventist Church, where her faith shaped how she loved.

The family will be adding more of Ruby’s story here — her childhood, her family, and the moments that shaped her.

Her Faith

Grounded in Christ

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

Philippians 4:13 · Her Favorite Scripture

Ruby’s faith was steady and sure. A member of Spanish Town Seventh Day Adventist Church, she carried her belief quietly — in the way she treated people, the peace she offered, and the hope she held onto. The last book she read was In His Time by Rosemarie Benjamin.
