Anne Broaddus Sydnor

March 14, 1938 - August 5, 2025

Anne Christian Broaddus Sydnor, 87, passed away on August 5, 2025. She was the daughter of Jackson Aubrey Broaddus and Nettie May Broaddus and was predeceased by her brothers, James A. Broaddus and John E. Broaddus, and by her beloved husband of 60 years, the Rev. Dr. Clement A. Sydnor, III (Kim). Anne was raised in Sandston, Virginia and graduated from Highland Springs High School. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Nursing and a Master of Science as a Family Nurse Practitioner from the Medical College of Virginia. She loved being a nurse and was a blessing to her patients.

Anne was a loving daughter, sister, wife, mother, and (especially) grandmother. She is survived by her son, Clement A. Sydnor IV, his wife, Kelly, and their sons, Quint and Cole (Charisma); her daughter, Anne Christian Ogden, her husband, Dave, and their children, Jansen (Clarissa), Jordan, and Skylar; and her son, Jonathan Paul Sydnor, his wife, Abigail Henrich, and their children, Josiah, Isaac, and Lydia.

Throughout her life, as a family member, nurse and friend, Anne served God with all her heart, soul, mind, and strength. In addition to serving God by serving others, she enjoyed travel, history, bridge, and playing games with her grandchildren.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, memorial gifts may be made to:

I'm so sorry to hear of my first cousin Anne's passing. Our fathers were brothers. Anne was the sweetest, calmest person I've ever known. We were closest when we visited our beloved Aunt Cordie before I moved to California. After that we kept up with each other through emails with Ann Broaddus. My sincere condolences for Anne's family and friends. With much love, Elizabeth Broaddus Kelly 915 Chestnut Ave, Redlands, CA 92373.

Clement, words fail to express the depth of sorrow I feel for you and your family. During this time of sorrow, may you find comfort in the support of loved ones, and may the beautiful memories of your mother bring you peace and healing.

Ms Sydnor was a fantastic lady and a great Mom to three great children. And a good neighbor to us all on Kalb Rd. She will be missed by many.

Anne was a special friend. I met her at the Fitness Center in Tappahannock, Va. She made a delicious coconut pie and kindly shared the recipe. I was saddened to hear of her death.
