Anne had a passion for antiques and spent many years as a talented antiques dealer in the family business at Timeless Treasures Antique Mall in Oxford. Beyond her work with antiques, Anne played a vital role in the family's success by managing bookkeeping with precision and care. Her organizational skills and dedication were invaluable assets to those who depended on her.
Anne was incredibly proud of her children and their accomplishments. She took great pride in Rhonda’s service to her country as a member of the United States Army, honoring her dedication and sacrifice. She also cherished the many hours spent on the golf course watching her son, Gary, an accomplished golfer, play the game he loves. Her unwavering support and admiration for both of them were a testament to the deep love she had for her family.
More than anything, Anne treasured time with her family, especially doting on her grandson, Peyton. Her love, kindness, and wisdom will be deeply missed but forever remembered by those who were fortunate enough to know her.
Anne’s legacy of love and devotion will continue to live on in the hearts of her family and friends.
