Annie was a member of Hampton Heights Baptist Church in Tuscumbia, Alabama. She loved each and every person there and was so happy to find a church as loving as this one.
She loved her husband with all her heart and since the day they were separated by his death, she longed to be with him again. She was a caretaker of everyone around her. She was a stay at home mom and Nana, a pastor’s wife, a mother-in-law, a sister, a dear friend and a good neighbor. She treated everyone she met with the same welcoming smile and kindness. We are blessed to have witnessed the life of this beautiful woman and the influence of her sweet personality. We will miss her excitement over Alabama football games, her classy sense of style, her perfect chicken and dumplings and her hugs and kisses. She loved us all “to the moon and back” and words cannot describe how thankful we are to be loved by her.
She gave her life to Jesus many years ago, so we know that by doing the same we will spend eternity together in Heaven. In this we find comfort… See you later Mama.
