  She was raised and educated in Kearney, NE, graduating from Kearney Senior High School in 1945.  She was united in marriage to James B. Frazier on January 10, 1947, in Kearney, NE.  They lived for a brief time in both Denver, CO, and Scottsbluff, NE, before making their permanent home in Cozad, where they owned and operated Frazier’s Jewelry together.  She was a member of the Parkview United Methodist Church.  As a mother, Ann promoted her son’s involvement in the Boy Scouts of America from Cub through Eagle Scouts and was an advocate of Brownies, 4-H, and other activities with her daughter.  She also actively pursued family history with local friends and a host of family members throughout the United States who were also involved in the love of genealogy. 

An avid reader, she included creative endeavors among her numerous other interests, which included sewing, decorating, and collecting antiques.  Ann was the ‘curator’ of specially chosen teddy bears and some vintage dolls.  Above all, Ann loved just being at home.  Her parents, grandparents and beloved son, James Brian Frazier welcomed her into heaven.

Prior to living at the Good Samaritan Nursing Home in Wood River, Ann was a resident at Country House in Grand Island.  Contributions in Ann’s memory may be made to the Alzheimer’s Association or to Asera Care Hospice.
