Ann Mayhew Obituary
Ann Marie's life was marked by her infectious smile, her unwavering generosity, and her love for all things Mickey Mouse. Her spirit was one of boundless energy and enthusiasm, which she poured into every aspect of her life, including her passion for collecting Longaberger Baskets. She had a unique ability to turn the ordinary into the extraordinary, and she never met a stranger, treating everyone she encountered as a friend.
Her love story with Jeffrey Mayhew was a testament to her belief in love and commitment. Married for five years, Jeffrey was her steadfast companion, and he survives her, carrying forward the light of their shared memories.
Ann Marie's legacy is also carried on by her devoted children, Stephanie Sutton of Seymour, Indiana, and Shawn Mayhew of Austin, Indiana. Her grandchildren, whom she adored more than words can express, will miss her deeply, Trevor Johnson, Karisma Johnson, Kenton Johnson, and Lacy Bolen.
She leaves behind her loving siblings, Mike Williams, Michelle Crosby, and Tammy White, all of Kansas, as well as her step-mother, Meredith Williams of Leavenworth, Kansas. Her departure was preceded by the loss of her son, Anothony Williams, and her brother, Ward Williams.
Ann Marie was a dedicated member of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ in Crothersville, Indiana,
