Mrs. Annie Lou (Moorer) Carmichael was born on August 6, 1949 in Orangeburg, South Carolina to Mr. Johnnie Adams and Mrs. Rebecca Sistrunk Adams-Young, but was gracefully reared by Mr. Charlie Young. Annie was called upon the Lord into eternal rest on December 12, 2019 at the Regional Medical Center in Orangeburg, South Carolina.

Annie became a member of Jerusalem Baptist Church at an early age, but later transferred her fellowship to St. Paul Baptist Church in Orangeburg, South Carolina.

“Ann Lou” as she was affectionately called by her loved ones, enjoyed a love for cooking, singing and dancing and within her own rights became a successful restaurant owner. She celebrated many accomplishments; however, her greatest joy was the love for her family and her faithfulness to the Lord.
