Anna Marie Moss

Anna Marie Moss, 84, of Clinton died peacefully on Friday, April 14, 2017
at Decatur Memorial Hospital.
She was born May 27, 1932, in DeWitt County, to Edward and Ida (Hall) Dial
and remained a life-long resident.
 
Anna was a cherished mother, grandmother, sister and aunt. She enjoyed
working outside in her vegetable and floral gardens, and was also an
accomplished quilter and talented artist. She was an avid golfer in the
ladies golf league at the Clinton Country Club for many years. Her most
important role, though, was providing a constant level of support for her
beloved husband, Raymond. His success as an attorney is measured by the
amount of love she had in supporting him. After battling cancer for
several years, Anna is now free from the pain and her soul is at peace.
Her entire family will miss her greatly, but are thankful for the memories
she left.
 
Anna is survived by her beloved husband of 37 years, Raymond Moss; her son
Ron (Joelle Schnierle) Taylor; her daughter Venessa (Steve) Sauer; her
stepsons David (Margaret) Moss, Tim (Alice) Moss, and Tom (Tina Dorow)
Moss; five grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. She is also survived
by two brothers; Phillip Dial and Robert Dial; along with several nieces
and nephews including a special niece, Susi Martin (Frank) Alexander.
Anna was preceded in death by her parents; her sisters Mary (Dial) Martin
and Louise (Dial) Copass; and her brothers Leland Dial and George Dial.
 
Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m., Wednesday, April 17, 2017 at
Calvert Funeral Home, Clinton, IL with Rev. Michael Taylor officiating.
Immediately following the services, her ashes will be interred at the
Texas Township Cemetery, Clinton, in her family plot alongside her
parents, sisters, and brothers.  After the graveside services, everyone
attending the service is invited to come to the Clinton Country Club for
luncheon where we can visit, eat, and rest in comfort.   There will be no
visitation.
 
In lieu of flowers, consider a donation to the Samaritan Room or plant a
tree in her honor for her love of the outdoors. The family wishes to thank
all of Anna's friends and family for everything they have done for her,
including the doctors and nurses at Carle Foundation Hospital, McKinley
Court, and Decatur Memorial Hospital.
