Federico (Susan) of Warren. In addition to her children, she is also survived by her 14 grandchildren, 15 great-grandchildren, and one great-great-grandchild and many friends and acquaintances.

In death she is reunited with her siblings, Chet Dyer, Everett Dyer, George Dyer, Howard Dyer, Arthur Dyer, Merle Dyer, Marion DeBlois, Viola Cook, and Doris Dyer.
