Lydia Lee Miller obituary, Allnutt Funeral & Cremation - Macy, March 2016, Greeley, Colorado as listed at www.dignitymemorial.com
Lydia Lee Miller Ruyle AUGUST 4, 1935 - MARCH 26, 2016. Lydia Lee Miller Ruyle, an internationally recognized artist, scholar, educator, mentor, and community leader died at home in her art studio on March 26, 2016. Lydia's art has exhibited in the National Museum of Women in the Arts, the United Nations World Conference on Women, and throughout the world, including England, France, Germany, Italy, Korea, Nepal, Peru, Russia and Turkey. Her work evolved from oil painting, to sculpture, lithography, and papermaking. Most recently, she's worked with Louise Kearns to create rip stop nylon Goddess Banners she called her "girls" of over 300 sacred female images from different cultures. Lydia received a Masters in Fine Arts at the University of Northern Colorado where she's continued to teach women's studies and art history as scholar emerita on the Visual Arts Faculty. The University of Northern Colorado hosts The Lydia Ruyle Room for Women's Art. Lydia also owned and operated Goddess Tours and YAYA Journeys, which produced spiritual pilgrimages for women to sacred places in the world. Her art has been featured in books and magazines, and she published two books. While creating art, she volunteered countless hours as an active mentor and community leader. Lydia was elected and served two terms on the District 6 School Board, on the Colorado Commission on Higher Education, the Colorado Council on the Arts and Humanities, the University of Northern Colorado Foundation, and the Colorado and International Women's Forum. Lydia was active in the Weld County Democrats and in the cultural movement that resulted in the building of the Union Colony Civic Center. Lydia was born in Denver, Colorado on August 4, 1935 as the first daughter of Lydia Alles Miller and David J. Miller. In 1939, she moved with her family to Greeley where she met her husband, in kindergarten at Cameron Elementary. She graduated valedictorian of Greeley Central High School Class of 1953 and was a Boettcher Scholar. In 1957, she earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Colorado at Boulder and graduated magna cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa. After her husband completed CU Law School he decided to practice law with David J. Miller, so Lydia and family moved back to Greeley to live in Alles Acres, the subdivision formed out of her grandfather's farm. Lydia is survived by her husband and her three children. She was preceded in death by her parents Lydia Alles Miller and David J. Miller; and her brother The Honorable Walker Miller. Services will be held at 11:00 A.M., Thursday, March 31, 2016 at the First Congregational Church, 2101 16th Street, Greeley, Colorado. Memorial contributions may be made to the Community Foundation Serving Greeley and Weld County in memory of Lydia Ruyle, 2425 35th Ave., Suite 201, Greeley, CO, 80634, or visit at www.cfsgwc.org, and click on the donate button and use the drop down menu to select Lydia Ruyle memorial (it is listed at the top of the drop down menu for convenience) or in care of Allnutt Funeral Service, 702 13th Street, Greeley, CO 80631.
