Ruby Turner Isaac
Aug 20, 1927 - Jan 21, 2015

Surrounded by family and friends, Ruby Turner Isaac died quietly in her Myrtle Beach home Wednesday January 21, 2015. She was born on August 20, 1927 in Nesmith, SC, the eleventh of the thirteen children born to Lula Blackmon and Benjamin Turner.

Ruby, along with her husband, were the owners and operators of the Western Union franchise of Myrtle Beach for over thirty years. She was also the last charter member of the D.O.E.S. Club, a female auxiliary order of the Elks Club.

Ms. Turner married Daniel Harden Isaac in 1946. They moved to Myrtle Beach in 1954, raised five children and were central to the early growth of Myrtle Beach. Mrs. Isaac is survived by four children, Gloria (Thomas) Hills, Daniel (Sally) Isaac, Jr., Thomas Isaac, and Lisa (Timothy) Lee, seven grandchildren, five great grandchildren and a special friend, Mitch Young. She was preceded in death by her daughter, Marsha and by her husband, Daniel.

In life and in dying, Ruby Isaac was courageous, genuine and faithful to God, family and friends. She believed everyone was good at heart and worthy of love. She touched the hearts of young and old alike.
