Ann Barbee Chambless passed away on Sunday, April 17, 2022. Memorial services were held on Sunday, May 1, 2022 at the Scottsboro Jackson Heritage Center.

Ann was born on Friday, August 14, 1936 in Scottsboro to Albert Leonard and Era Barbee. She was a 1954 graduate of Jackson County High and married Joe Chambless in 1954. Ann enjoyed riding and showing horses, reading, playing bridge and being involved in anything that concerned their son. She loved history and spent many years researching and compiling genealogy information and was always willing to share with others. While at Southern Estates, where she was a resident for three years, she worked hundreds of crossword puzzles and preferred the New York Times puzzles that were more challenging than the average ones.

She is survived by her son, Robert Chambless; daughter-in-law, Yeongha Seo; grandson, Joseph Chambless; sister, Martha Hess; special friend, Dendy Rousseau.

We would like to thank and praise the Southern Estates Assisted Living owner and staff for the wonderful care Ann received. She was treated like family. Also, thank you to the staff at Encompass Hospice who gave her excellent care.
