Syble Laurine Adams Andrews,known as "Nan" to her family was born to Marion Francis Adams and Dora Helen Adams on July 18, 1922. She had nine brothers and sisters. She was a graduate of Mason High School with honors as an All-County basketball guard.
Music had a great influence in their family and most of the children could play instruments and sing. They later formed a family gospel quartet and spread the gospel for years. Syble had the opportunity to sing and play on local radio stations for several years as well.
In 1943, Nan married Raymond Andrews in Seminole, and had three children: Glenda, Phyllis and Roger. The family was transferred to Sand Spring in 1956 where Syble continued to help raise her family while working outside the home. As time went on, the children grew and just as before, music continued to be a great influence in her family. Syble was to be the founder and the heart of The Lively Stones Gospel Bluegrass Band, which featured that tight family harmony that she knew so well. Their ministry was centrally located in Oklahoma and extended to the surrounding states for over 20 years. The Lively Stones had the good pleasure of singing in Branson, Missouri at their hearts' desire, Silver Dollar City, for almost 14 years in that Little Wilderness Church they loved so much and recording six gospel albums. Raymond and Syble were married 60 years before the Lord called Raymond home and Syble continued in the Lord, and with her family attended the New Covenant Bible Church in Tula.
On July 12, the Lord called Syble home. She is survived by her three children, six grandchildren, six great-grandchildren, three sisters and her first love, Henry Cooper of Prague, Oklahoma.
Services for Syble were held at 2 p.m., Mon., July 16, at Green Hill Funeral Home Chapel with burial following at Green Hill Memorial Gardens. Reverend James Lacey of The New Covenant Bible Church officiated.
Casket bearers included Brandon Andrews, Bill Bellis, James Clifton, Jim Clifton, Cody Andrews, John Stafford and Charity Chumley. The family chose to entrust the care of the service to the funeral directors at Green Hill Funeral Home in Sapulpa.
