Elizabeth Mae Krider

Elizabeth was born 10 weeks premature weighing only two pounds 11 ounces but had grown to be a very strong, vibrant little girl. Elizabeth had only a short three months on this earth but she had a large impact on everyone that she came in contact with. She was notorious for pooping while she was being held by anyone. She was small but had a very large sassy attitude and personality. She loved to make a pucker face and stick her tongue out at everyone. Her pastime consisted of cuddling with her mom and dad, pulling her dad’s beard, playing with her mom's necklace, and swinging in her swing. She was a very happy baby but her least favorite thing was being put into her carseat.

Elizabeth is survived by her parents, Randy and Ashley Krider, her great-grandparents, Wanda and Chris Rodger’s, Leona Sowers, her grandparents, Billy and Neala Burress, Bryan and Jamie Cook, Linda and Jeff Krider, Tim Downer, her great-great aunt and uncle, William and Melissa Jacobs, her great aunts and uncles, Patience and Gary Joaquim, Crystal and Hue Chen, Rodney and Heather Wilhoit, Gail Johnson, Janet Smith, her aunts and uncles, Brittany and Tiffany Cook, Krystalyn and Joshua Brewer, her Godmother, Haley Newton, and special friends of the family Matthew Marquis and Anna and Stacy Wilson.

She is preceded in death by her great great-grandmother Barbara Metcalf, her great-grandparents, Clarence and Kathy Cook, Brenda and Grady Wilhoit, Renee Billings, Mike Joaquim, her great-great aunt, Debbie Wilson, her great aunt, Cindy Cook, and her 3rd cousin Brent Jacobs.
