Elizabeth Ann Pittard, age 81, went to be with the Lord on January 21, 2023. She passed peacefully in her sleep at home.
Ann was preceded in death by her father, Thomas Ezekiel Burson, her mother, Ruth Morris Burson, and her brother, James Burson. She is survived by her husband of 61 years, Charles (Charlie) Pittard, sons: Dave Pittard (Mendi), Tommy Pittard (Aimee) and grandchildren: Daniel Pittard (Leslie), Timothy Pittard, Toree Pittard, Tyler Pittard (Claudia), and Tanner Pittard.
Ann was born in Atlanta, Georgia and graduated from Campbell High School in Smyrna, GA. In June of 1961, she married the love of her life, Charlie, and soon after welcomed their twin sons, Dave and Tom, into their family. She spent some time as a stay-at-home mother before pursuing her career with the Georgia Lung Association. She was a very skilled seamstress and crafter, leaving the family with special keepsakes. Later in life, Ann and Charlie moved to Jasper, Georgia, where she was an active participant in her church and neighborhood community. As an avid traveler, Ann especially enjoyed their trips to visit Alaska and Australia. Ann was a loving mother, grandmother, and wife. She faithfully loved her family and The Lord.
