Patsy Anderson Obituary

Dianne Anderson was born Oct. 11, 1953 at Tippins Hospital in Hartford, AL, and peacefully gained her heavenly wings on Nov. 7, 2017 at Southeast Alabama Medical Center surrounded by her loved ones. In her last few months, Dianne accepted Christ as her Savior and prepared herself for the journey to her Heavenly home. Memorial services will be held at 3:00 p.m., Saturday, November 11, 2017 in Clearman Chapel at Southern Heritage Funeral Home. Visitation will be one hour prior from 2-3 p.m. at the funeral home. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Dianne's memory to American Heart Association, 1152 W. Main St., Dothan, AL 36301. Dianne attended Dothan High School, and was employed by GTE and Ansell prior to starting her own home cleaning service. Before medical issues hindered her, Dianne was always there to lend a hand to anyone who asked. She loved her family deeply and wanted the best for them. We can hear her infectious, and sometimes sarcastic, laugh and see her beautiful smile as she crossed the river to Beulah Land, joining her parents and other loved ones in heaven. She was predeceased by her parents Orban E. (Runt) and Dorothy (Crutchfield) Jones. Dianne is survived by her husband of 30 years, Larry Anderson, Wicksburg; three daughters, Karen (Darrell) Phillips, Clewiston, FL; Stephanie Martin, Rehobeth; and Danielle (Barry) Cox, Wicksburg; five grandchildren, Kade Childs, Kaleb Childs, Tanner Martin, Hunter Whittington, and Dakota Peters; one great grandchild, Dawson Cole Whittington; two brothers, Roger (Debbie) Jones and Carlton Jones, Dothan; one sister, Delores (Greg) Woodham, Bay Springs Community. She is also survived by her husband's family members, several aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, family friends and former customers. Special thanks to the caregivers of Flowers Hospital, Noland Hospital and SE Alabama Medical Center, and everyone who touched Dianne's life through the years. www.southernheritagefh.com
