Ann grew up in the Brookhaven community. She graduated from Chamblee High School, after high school, she met the love of her life, Charles Stroup, on a blind date. They were married on March 2, 1957.
Ann was gifted beyond measure. She knew how to make each house a welcoming home. Her home was filled with a sweet sprit and friends knew they could drop in any time for a visit and a listening ear. Grateful for the abundant blessings in her life, she volunteered at InTouch Ministries for 25 years with the purpose of glorifying God.
Ann leaves a legacy that is grounded in her faith in Jesus Christ. She and Charles attended First Baptist Atlanta and was part of the Crusaders Sunday School class. Her quiet faith encouraged and supported her family through the mountains and valleys of life.
A graveside service to celebrate her life will be held at 10:00 AM, Arlington Memorial Cemetery on February 8, 2024.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Childrens Healthcare of Atlanta (choa.org/give) or Shepherd Spinal Center (foundation.shepherd.org).
