Lovie Ridner, 89, died Monday, May 17, 2010 at her home in Des Moines. She was born on March 3, 1921 to James and Molly Keener in Des Moines.
Lovie was a lifelong resident of Des Moines, IA. Her enjoyments consisted of family time, cooking, listening to books, Christian music, bible study and coffee with friends at Walden Point. Throughout Lovie’s life she touched many lives, including stray animals that came to her door hungry.

Today she is rejoicing with her husband Roe, daughter Sally, mother Molly and many friends.
