She was born May 24, 1932 in Cumberland County, Illinois.
A self-professed "farm girl", Ann was the loving daughter of Clyde and Clydia Huff and was graduated from Neoga High School. Ann moved to Springfield with her family in 1963 and was thereafter a lifelong resident of this City. Ann was a deeply loving mother and grandmother and was previously married to Kenneth L. Andres, who preceded her in death and with whom she had three sons who became the focus of her life.
She is survived by her sons, J. Geoffrey (wife, Ellen) and J. Kelly (wife, Suzanne) and by her five lovely granddaughters Nicole, Katelyn, Lauren, Elsie and Maddie Andres.
Ann was preceded in death by her firstborn son, Charles Theodore (Ted) Andres in 1987.
Ann was a woman of rare sensitivity and intellect, the valedictorian of her high school class and a lifelong student of language. She was an accomplished horsewoman in her day, and was at one time the youngest licensed pilot in Coles County, Illinois, logging air time in a bi-wing and other vintage planes of the 1940's and 1950's. Ann went on to be a highly successful manager in the fledgling Tupperware Products industry in the mid to late 1960's, earning "Golden Galaxy" status, managing as many as thirty Tupperware dealers and managers concurrently and contributing significantly to the Tupperware organizational structure in Illinois. She later retired from the State of Illinois, Department of Public Aid.
Friends and family will be received on Wednesday, February 29, 2012 from 4:00 to 6:00 PM at Boardman-Smith Funeral Chapel. A funeral service will be held immediately following the reception, with burial to be at 12:00 Noon on Saturday March 3, 2012 in Salisbury, Illinois.
