Rissa was the secretary for Pisgah High School for a number of years. She was a dedicated mother and grandmother who enjoyed spending time with her loving husband and family. She could often be found at a baseball field proudly cheering on her grandsons, or listening to stories of their latest hunting or fishing trips. Rissa became an advocate for many people, especially women, who were going through various types of cancer. She counseled them and walked with them through their experience, while witnessing to them and telling what Jesus had done for her throughout her journey. Rissa was fiercely determined to live her life for the Lord and kept Him as her focus during her walk.
Rissa is preceded in death by her father, Burnnie Frazier of Pulaski, father-in-law Ed Tagert of Branch, sister-in-law Margie Hill (Clyde) of Donaldsonville, LA, and grandchild, Charlie McCurdy.
