Obituary For Mrs. Annie Bell Ellerbe-Kearse
Mrs. Annie Davis Kearse, affectionately known as Mrs. Ann, departed this earthly life on August 12, 2025, peacefully at home.

Mrs. Ann attended South Carolina public schools. After moving to North Carolina, she earned her Certificate in Hospitality and for many years worked in housekeeping at Thomasville Medical. Mrs. Ann had a kind, gentle soul that was always willing to help others. No one went without food in her sight (lol), and everyone knew who to call if you needed a babysitter!
Mrs. Ann leaves to cherish her memory, her children; Ethel (Timothy) Bennett, Joseph Kearse, Michael (Teresa) Kearse, Thelma Kearse, Lamont (Dionne) Kearse, Kenneth Kearse and Catherine Kearse, all of High Point, NC; one special granddaughter, Holli Jeffries , whom she shared a bond like no other with, thirteen additional grandchildren; eleven great grandchildren; she also leaves her husband; Willie Kearse, Jr; two sisters-in-law, Betty K. Jackson of High Point and Helen Kearse of Thomasville, NC; two brothers-in-law, Henry (Essie) Brown of Thomasville, NC and John (Ruth) Kearse of Charlotte, NC; as well as a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends whom she loved dearly.
Funeral service will be held Sunday, August 24, 2025 at 2:00 p.m. at Living Water Baptist Church. Interment will follow at Guil-Rand Memorial Park. The family will receive friends at the church from 1:30 p.m. until 2:00 p.m.
