She was the second child and first daughter of William Sims Rigler and Willie Marion Daniel Rigler.
The following obituary from the January 23, 1907, issue of the CHRISTIAN OBSERVER tells a little of her brief life.
"Miss Mary Lee, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Rigler, passed quietly away at the home of her parents, near Robinson, Texas, on December 27, 1906, in the twenty-fifth year of her age. She remarked to her pastor a few days before her death: 'I have been sick all my life.' So it was. She was never entirely well, and was necessarily kept much at home. Her gentle ministrations to younger brothers and sisters were of never failing helpfulness to her beloved mother, and the results for good, heaven alone will reveal. That home is lonely without her. But it is sweet to think there is another and even better home to which she has passed - 'A home unhurt by sighs or tears, Where none are sick, or poor or lone, the place were we shall find our own.'"
