Ruby Alice
(Chapman) Williams
March 3, 1949 – July 7, 2023
Ruby Alice (Chapman) Williams, 74, of Pensacola, FL, passed away on Friday, July 7, 2023.
Our beloved Ruby Alice (Chapman) Williams was born on March 3, 1949, in Cooper City, AL to the late Sye and Rochester Chapman.
She was educated in the Escambia County School District and graduated from Wedgewood High School in 1967. After graduation, she furthered her cosmetology education and received her licensure at the Florida Community College in Jacksonville, FL. Ruby returned to Pensacola in January of 1979 and began her cosmetology career at Myrt's House of Beauty. In 1982 she started Ruby's Curls & Coiffures on Pace Blvd and later partnered with Rosa Albritton at Ruby's and Rosa's Hair Gallery. Ruby's gifted hands have blessed so many in the Pensacola community and beyond. Over the 40-year span of her career, clients have become friends and those friends became family.
She is preceded in death by her parents, Sye and Rochester Chapman; brothers, Tommie L. Williams, Willie C. Williams, Sr., and Tyrone Chapman; sister, Gloria J. Baldwin, and son, Steven Williams.
Memories of Ruby's loving spirit will be forever cherished by her daughter, Pamela Williams; grandchildren, Jamiliya Semone McBride (Devodric) and Tashoni Love; great-grandchildren, Jayce McBride, Journi McBride, and Tinsley English; brother, James L. Williams; special friend/sister/classmate, Mary L. Williams, and a host of nieces, nephews, family, and friends.
