                                 Anne Lincoln

LYONS-Anne Marie Lincoln age 92, of Lyons,Michigan died peacefully on November 
5, 2022, after a brief illness. St.Ann's Home, Grand Rapids, MI.and Faith 
Hospice cared for her.

She was the eldest daughter of Raymond and Agatha (O'Hara) Lincoln. Her parents 
and brothers Patrick, Raymond, John, and Joseph and sister Mary (Lincoln) 
Krampe, preceded her in death. She was close with her siblings and their 
spouses.

She worked for many years nursing pediatric patients and their families at 
St.Mary's Mercy Hospital Grand Rapids, a Trinity Health hospital.She was known 
to be skilled, kind, and knowledgeable in her field. Her work was challenging, 
fulfilling, and  often required her to experience realities she would not have 
chosen. She practiced faithfully and professionally. She believed it was 
important to keep an active mind and body to be healthy.

Anne was a lifelong parishioner of Saints Peter and Paul Catholic Church,Ionia. 
She valued an annual retreat at Saint Lazarre's Retreat House in Spring Lake,MI. 
organizing women of the parish to attend. Her times on retreat were moments of 
healing, peace, renewal, and rest in the loving presence of God. She learned 
much and shared what she learned.

She was an active participant int e lives of nieces ad nephews and often shared 
news of them with other family members.She mentored them on how to be adult 
family members, even when they did not know she was teaching.

Her home was always a place of welcoming calm and the presence of beloved cats. 
First Rusty, then later Michael and Maggie Rose. She showed them great affection 
and often said she received much more than she gave.

A great host of nieces, nephews, grand-nieces, grand-nephews, and friends 
survive Anne.

She absorbed and lived the Mercy charism, to care for the least in our midst, in 
her professional work, but it was more than a corporate slogan in her life. It 
was the way she approached every situation. Anne Believed that the mercy, love 
and kindness she received, was to be shared feely and applied widely. She would 
be incredibly happy to know that others follow her example.

Mass of Christian Burial will be held Monday, November 14th, 11:00 AM at Saints 
Peter and Paul Catholic Church, 434, High Street, Ionia, MI with burial and 
committal at Mount Olivet Cemetery, Ionia. Visitation and remembering will be
