Riney Bailey Gribble

Riney Bailey Gribble, age 94, a devoted mother, grandmother, and cherished member of Crosspointe Church, passed away Wednesday, October 29th, 2025.
Born to Mancel and Esther Mae Miller Bailey, Riney lived a life full of warmth, faith, and joy. She dedicated many years to teaching Sunday School, nurturing the spiritual growth of her community.

Sisters-in-law, Joyce Starks, Kathryn Cochran, and Carol Gribble; special niece, Debbie Umstead; and numerous nieces and nephews also survive.
