Ryder was born on January 26, 2017 to parents Stephanie Harrell and Justin Auteri in Oklahoma City, OK.

Ryder loved giving hugs and kisses to his family and to Fancie, Jazz, Harley, and BooBoo. He enjoyed swinging under the apple tree and going for rides on the ‘tractor’ with his father Justin and Papa Dan. He was content rocking in the rocking chair with Oomah singing in his ear. He seldom went anywhere without either Foxy or BearBear. He had a one of a kind personality and never met a stranger. He had a love for basketball and always wanted to be outside with his brothers and neighbor kids trying to shoot hoops with a ball as big as he was. He brought so much joy and so many laughs with his beautiful smile and bright blue eyes, his quarky attitude, and his funny facial expressions. He loved watching Paw Patrol, pillow fighting with the kids, playing peek-a-boo, running his cars through the house and playing catch. He also loved cuddling with Joe on the couch and using momma as a jungle gym.

‘Lil Bub’ as called by his siblings will forever be missed and deeply loved. Emma will tell you that what she loves most is how cute he is and brother Braydon says that he loves that ‘Lil Bub’ was cute and funny. Joshua’s most loved thing about brother was simply his presence. His smile and laugh lit up the room and always brought happiness and a calm to him when he came home.

Survivors include his mother Stephanie, dad-in-love, Joseph, big brothers Joshua and Braydon and big sister Emma of the home, father Justin Auteri, paternal grandparents Dan ‘Papa’ and Johnna ‘Oomah’ Hasenfratz of Stillwater, OK and Chuck Auteri of Utah, Aunt Katie “Fred” Auteri of Stillwater, OK, maternal great-grandmother Jannie Kramer of Stillwater, OK, great-grandfather Harlan Bell of Pryor, OK, grandparents Tony and Mellanie Patak of Orlando, OK, uncles and aunts, Terry and Marriya Wright of Stillwater, OK, David and Amanda Harrell of Glencoe, OK, Jarrod and Megan Harrell of Perry, OK, Dustin and Olivia Warden of Stillwater, OK, and Eli Patak of Orlando, OK, as well as numerous 1st and 2nd cousins.
