Rylee Ann “Roo” Hefner, 3-month-old daughter of Brian and Lacey Forsythe Hefner of Harrod, went to heaven at 11:18 a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 19, 2016, at Lima Memorial Hospital.
She was born at 2:12 p.m. July 8, 2016, and also is survived by maternal grandparents, Deb and Monty Forsythe of Lewistown; paternal grandfather, Danny Hefner of Lima; and great-grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins.
She was preceded in death by paternal grandmother, Shirley Hefner.
Rylee Roo was known to be happy and full of smiles. She enjoyed playing with the stuffed bugs on her carseat, talking to Nemo in her bouncy seat and looking at the stars on her ceiling at bedtime. She loved to be outside and to ride four wheelers with the family.
Brian and Lacey have generously shared Rylee with Lifeline of Ohio and take comfort in knowing other babies will be helped.
Calling is from 3 to 6 p.m. today, Monday, Oct. 24, at Bayliff & Son Funeral Home, Cridersville, followed by the funeral with Chaplain Jed Brake officiating.
