She was a house wife that took care of 2 children that had duchenne muscular dystrophy. The Jerry Lewis telethon was a big deal with the family because of this. Unfortunately her sons died young 22 and 18. She had 1 other son Paul E Grider and 2 daughters Gina Grider and Vicki Combs.

She loved the outdoors especially fishing, we always said if she wasn't at the bingo hall you would find her on the bank fishing. We went camping regularly, like a summer outing for the entire family, aunts uncles kids the works.
When we were young she made all our holiday outfits, she would dress us up and we would go downtown Fairborn and walk in the parade. She loved Holidays and decorating for them. She had a winter town that she would set up in the window every Christmas. We once built a 8 foot snowman in the front yard and had our picture in the paper for it. My grandparents lived on xenia dr in a company house, my grandfather her husband worked at the soutwestern portland cement company.
After his retirement they moved to Marion Ohio and traveled the states in a motor home.
She was 1 of 9 children born to the fox family in Ironton (Hecla) Ohio.
She went by Jack or Jackie a lot as that was kind of her nickname.
