Mable Francis Tedder

TEDDER, MRS. MABLE FRANCIS Muskegon, MI Mable Tedder was reunited with her mother, father, son & many friends on April 1, 2003 after a long illness. She is remembered as a dutiful daughter, a loving wife, a dedicated mother, a generous friend & a very classy lady. She was born Mable Francis Cash on June 6, 1916 to Robert Cash & Alma Hamm Cash in Louisville, KY. Mable grew up in Connersville, IN & came to Michigan in 1940 with her first husband, John L. Jones. She lovingly raised her three children, Robert R. Jones, who preceded her in death, Darma J. Jones Canter of Muskegon & Janda J. Jones Grove of Minneapolis, MN. Mable married Leonard W. Tedder in November 1960 & for 42 years they loved & encouraged their grandchildren, Rob, Ron, Jennifer, Orville, Vincent & Eleanor. She is lovingly remembered by her stepdaughters, Carol Gleason & Mary Lou Webber, their grandchildren & great-grandchildren. Mable had many artistic interests. She was famous in the 1950's for her fun house design at the Glenside School carnivals. She decorated many area homes with her ''feather flower arrangements'' in the 1960's & she enjoyed china painting with her friends in the 1970's. Mable loved her membership in the Jean Batiste Recollet Questers Club of Muskegon. She acquired an extensive collection of porcelain souvenir shoes that she proudly displayed at the Tempting Tables 2002 as a breast cancer survivor. Mable loved life. She danced & laughed, sewed, decorated, cooked, read, collected, encouraged, directed, planted; she could make something from nothing. She loved to dress & was glamorous even in her eighties. Mable's spirit enriched the lives of her family, friends & congregation of Trinity Lutheran. We miss her already. SERVICE Friday, April 4, 2003, 11:00 AM at Trinity Lutheran Church with Rev.
