Anne was born on October 5, 1956, in Flint, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert and Frances (Clune) LePard. Educated locally, Anne attended Holy Family Catholic School in Grand Blanc and graduated from Grand Blanc High School with the class of 1974. Shortly thereafter, she would begin her career, working for General Motors at AC Spark Plug for many years. During that time, she was a member of UAW Local #651. On September 27, 1997, she and William D. “Bill” Weatherford, Jr. were united in marriage in Flint. Sadly, he preceded her in death on November 16, 2019. In her free time, Anne spent some time traveling, with trips to Florida and Hawaii, but family trips to their cabin up north were the most anticipated. She enjoyed many outdoor activities up north and had several favorite TV shows. She will truly be missed. Left to cherish her memory are, her children: Jerrod Granger, Lindsay, and husband, Derrick, Hollenbeck, and their father, Timothy, and wife, Wendy Granger; two grandchildren, Addison and Bryce; brother, John, and wife, Brenda LePard; sisters, Christine McVannel and Rita, and husband, Jack White; mother-in-law, Bobbie Weatherford; sister-in-law; Linda Brownleaf; uncle, Joseph, and wife, Joan LePard; and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends. She was preceded in death by her parents and a sister.
