She was preceded in death by her parents; her brother and her sisters; husband, Cecil Rider; and granddaughter, Gracie Massey.

A special thanks to Dr. Pablo Splenser for the many years of special care, and the Affinity Hospice nursing team (Lufkin office) for the love and care during these last several years. A very special thanks to her great- grandson Noah for the care and laughs he gave her while sitting with her on occasion. She would sure make him stay on his toes while he was in charge.
