We couldn't complete Ann's memories without mentioning Jim Fuller, her very loving companion for the last two years, who brought back her amazing smile and kept her from missing "The Dance".
Honorary pallbearers will be Kyle Hinds, Cody Coe, Scooter Fortner, Andrew Turner and Bradie Fortner.
A small, private service will be held on Monday, December 7, 2020 at Stewart Family Funeral Home Chapel in Tyler with J. B. Smith officiating. Burial will follow at Haven of Memories Cemetery in Canton under the direction of Stewart Family Funeral Home.
