Kirsten Elizabeth Rydeen, 30, of Branson.
Kirsten Elizabeth Rydeen was born May 19, 1993 in Independence, MO. She passed away unexpectedly on Friday, February 16, 2024 at her home in Branson at the age of 30.
Kirsten moved from Lake of the Ozarks to Branson while she was in elementary school and later graduated from Branson High School. She enjoyed photography and carried that interest into her occupation, working at Old Time Photos in Branson. She also enjoyed camping, canoeing and bowling.
Kirsten was a cherished mother, daughter and sister. Her heart was huge which showed through her care of her children, her love for her family and sharing her gifts of friendship and time with everyone she met. She had a bubbly personality, full of spirit and charm. She danced like no one was watching, made you laugh and would captivate a room. Her beautiful presence will be so deeply missed.
Kirsten was preceded in death by her father, Frank Winslow.
She is survived by her children, Kylie Bartholomew, Coleman Rydeen and Chloie Lane; her mother, Gail Dunn and step-father, Bryan Dunn of Galena; brothers, Chris Harmon and Jeff Harmon; sister Callie Harmon; and step-father, Rodney Harmon.
All are welcome to a time of gathering and visitation from 12:30 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. on Friday, February 23, 2024 at Snapp-Bearden Funeral Home & Crematory in Branson. Family and close friends will hold a private service to follow in the funeral home and burial in Ozarks Memorial Park Cemetery, Branson.
