Ann Wright Dye

Vardaman, MS-Ann Wright Dye, 96, received her heavenly wings on July 6, 2018 at the home of her niece in Fulton, MS.  She was born October 3, 1921 to Thomas Jefferson Wright and Georgia Ann Knight Wright, the youngest of 12 children.  She lived in Tremont, MS until her marriage to Shelby Durell Dye in 1969, and then made her home in Vardaman.

She was a faithful attendant to Vardaman United Methodist Church until her health declined.

A strong lady of humor, such a pleasure to be acquainted with, but would always speak her mind, and was always the life of the party. She loved to fish, play the piano, go to gospel singings and mowed her lawn until 4 years ago.

Visitation will be Sunday, July 8 from 1:00 P.M. to 3:00 P.M. at Parker Memorial Funeral Home in Vardaman. Services will be at 3:00 P.M. with Brother Terry Paul Graham, her nephew, officiating.  Burial will follow in Vardaman Memorial Cemetery.

Survivors include nieces, Jeffie Robinson, Sue Graham, Ann Nichols of Fulton; Sarah Hood of Hamilton, Al; Joy Maxey of Smithville; Patsy Bennett, Georgia Owen and Nina Cantrell of Tupelo.

Pallbearers will be Bob Dye, Shane Langford, Bob Hannaford, Roger Nichols, Dale Hood, Charles Owen, and Larry Cantrell.

In lieu of flowers, please make memorials to Vardaman United Methodist Church.
