Anne meant so much to so many, wearing a variety of hats during her time on Earth. She was generous with her time and energy and was willing to lend a helping hand from sewing band uniforms to fundraising for various organizations at school.
Ann loved her family dearly. She spent countless hours in the kitchen crafting perfect biscuits and creating delicious desserts. “Grandmother” also spent numerous hours, working late into the night, to repair the love worn stuffed animals of her distraught grandchildren. She was a member of Danville Baptist Church was loved by all who knew her. Anne’s most enduring legacy may be that of educator. She taught for more than 20 years, fostering the growth of her community’s future generations.
A loving mother, a doting grandmother, a devoted wife, she touched the lives of so many. She will be truly missed.
