ANNE DEES

Anne Rochelle Dees, age 52 of Neenah, passed away late Saturday, July 8, 2023.

Anne was selfless woman who helped others as much as she could. She had the most positive personality and was very giving. Anne loved working with children and had an associate degree in childhood education. She taught and worked in many daycares before receiving a degree in herbal medicine. Anne then worked for many years at Angels Forever-Windows of Light in downtown Appleton as a spiritual advisor and was talented at concocting medicines to keep away common illnesses such as the flu and colds.

Anne's many other talents include writing and publishing a book of poems, and intricate beadwork. She enjoyed making jewelry and had made many belly- dancer costumes for dancers across the world. She was extremely intelligent and well-read and presided over numerous weddings as an ordained minister. She had an amazing and eclectic taste in music and listened to anything from opera to jazz to pop and even passed while listening to Crosby, Stills, and Nash. Her favorite movies were the Mission: Impossible movies.

Anne loved people and never met a stranger. She also had a deep love of animals, specifically cats.
