Ann Eckerson Obituary

Ann Eckerson

- - Our beautiful, creative Ann died October 26, 2018. For five years she braved the painful symptoms of advanced COPD. Ann was a talented pastel artist and beader, and a prolific knitter of fabulous sweaters for appreciative family and friends. Recently, Ann said her bucket was filled with her many travels and enjoyable experiences.

She is survived by her 100 year old mother, Lucina Ball Moxley; her sister, Judith Eckerson; her daughter, Tracey Phillips and son-in-law, Michael Phillips; her son, Bryan Strohm and daughter-in-law, Katie Strohm; grandchildren, Erika Phillips-Miller, Dylan Phillips, Athena Strohm; as well as her niece, Breck Mickelson and her nephew, Scott Cummings. We all loved her dearly.

When I picture Ann, I see her walking around the neighborhood with Judy and her big white poodle, Daisy. Ann was our neighbor for a number of years at Windridge. I think of her and Judy every time I look at a wonderful painting of our dogs that Ann did.I also have some of her bead work that I love. We are sorry for Judy and the family.
