B. Ann Luffel

Beverly Ann Luffel (B Ann), beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and faithful wife, passed away on July 25, 2015. B Ann was born in Fort Scott Kansas in 1932. There she met and married her high school sweetheart, Donald Leroy Luffel in 1950. B Ann and Don moved to Houston Texas soon after the birth of their first child in 1951. B Ann and Don were married for 65 years.

B Ann was a wonderful and caring mother and grandmother. She lived for her children and grandchildren, and could always be counted on to give her love, support, and friendship to all the children and their spouses, and her beautiful grandchildren. She taught her family the true meanings of Unconditional Love and Unwavering Devotion. She was the Heart and Soul of the Luffel clan! B Ann will be missed beyond measure.

She was very active in her local church and garden clubs, and maintained many deep friendships. Colorado and New Mexico held a special place in her heart, along with an interest in the local Indian cultures, their music and their crafts. She spent as much of her time as possible at their summer home in Pagosa Springs Colorado, where she enjoyed the peace and beauty of the mountains, along with her faith and friendships at St. Patrick’s Episcopal Church.

B Ann is survived by her husband Don; three sons and their wives: Lawrence and Rosalie Luffel, Thomas and Patricia Luffel, Robert and Gerry Luffel; and daughter Meredith Emmott; grandchildren: Lauren and her husband Detrik Stillwaugh, Sarah Luffel, Kyle Emmott, Katherine Luffel, Brooke Emmott; great grandson Daxton Stillwaugh.

A memorial service will be held at Memorial Oaks Chapel on Tuesday, August 11 at 12:30. There will be an additional service for B Ann in Pagosa Springs, Colorado at St. Patrick’s Church at a date to be determined.
