In loving memory of Ann Denise Rice who sadly passed away on 25th February 2018
Born in 1948 to Mary and Dennis Ray, Ann was the eldest of 4 children - twins Judy and Jeff, and the youngest of the family, Paul. They all called her big sister, even though she was smaller than everyone. Ann first met her husband Chris in the Queen's Head pub in Erdington. They were married in 1973 and their one and only son Peter was born in 1978.
As you all know, Ann had been battling Arthritis for the last 30 years as well as numerous other ailments. But not once did anyone ever hear her complain. She was the toughest, most loving, and strongest willed person many of us will ever have the honour of knowing. Ann loved travelling the world and going on holiday with friends and family. She never let anything hold her back from the things she wanted to do. We've all seen her on the dancefloor with her crutches at one point or another. She loved nothing more than her little adventures with her two best friends, Geraldine and Maggie.
Ann has left behind more than just a footprint on the hearts of everyone she loved. She will be missed by so many.
