Ann Lorraine Grant

Memorial service for Ann Grant will be held 2:00 p.m., Friday, December 18, 2015 at Gillette Memorial Chapel. Ann Loraine Holdeman Grant age 87, departed this life on Saturday, December 12, 2015 due to complications from old age. Ann was a cancer survivor for 61 years with a magnificent spirit and will to live. In spite of many challenges through life Ann always bounced back. She was a voracious reader and had an amazing vocabulary. She may not have done crosswords in ink but she didn't need an eraser either. Her happiest times were when she was a secretary at Campbell County High School from 1955 until 1967; she loved the school, students and faculty. She worked many jobs in her life but none of them gave her the joy of the High School. Ann was fond of living at Pioneer Manor; she also enjoyed doing trivia and playing bingo. Ann was born Feb. 12, 1928 in Gillette, Wyoming, the first child of Ted and Trena (Wolf) Holdeman. In 1940 the family left the homestead and moved to Gillette where she attended school and graduated from CCHS. She was preceded in death by a daughter Leann Allen, her parents, sister; Catherine Study, brother; Jim Holdeman, and sister; Carol Dorn. She is survived by her son; Steve (Sue) Howe in Utah, her sister; Janet (Bud) Clements of Gillette, two grandsons, two great granddaughters, and numerous nieces and nephews. Memorials and condolences may be sent in Ann's name in care of Gillette Memorial Chapel 210 West 5th Street, Gillette, WY 82716.
