Some people become woven into the life of a church so deeply that it’s hard to imagine it without them. Anne Looney was one of those people.

Anne passed away Tuesday morning, and our 5th Avenue family is grieving the loss of one of our dearest friends. We will miss her voice in the choir, the conversations, the shared work, and simply being together.

Anne lived what we hope people find at 5th Avenue: a warm welcome, a place to belong, and love expressed through serving others. We saw it in her care for her neighbors, her work with The Master’s Table and C.O.P.E., and the many ways she gave of herself as a nurse, volunteer, and friend.

For more than 60 years, Anne was part of First Presbyterian Church, and she became a founding member of 5th Avenue Uniting Church. She served as an ordained elder and helped make this church a home for so many of us. We are grateful we got to share it with her.

Please hold Anne’s family and all who loved her in your prayers as we remember her and give thanks for her life.

Friday, October 30
5th Avenue Uniting Church
200 5th Avenue West, Springfield, TN
Visitation: 10:30 a.m.–1:00 p.m.
Funeral service: 1:00 p.m.

A private family graveside service will be held at Springfield Memorial Gardens.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial gifts to The Master’s Table or C.O.P.E. of Robertson County.
