Elizabeth Ann Andrews Loveland was born June 20, 1935, in Lakeland, Florida and was called home to be with the Lord January 22, 2025, in West Monroe, Louisiana.

Ms. Elizabeth Ann Andrews was the daughter of William D. and Mary Ann Andrews. She grew up in Lakeland where she met the love of her life, Larry Loveland. They married and began their life together. Larry served our great country in the US Navy as they raised their five children while moving to a number of places in country and abroad. 

Ann loved her family, who were her greatest possession. She was a devoted wife and mother. She always made sure that the family was all ready for church every Sunday and every Wednesday. A church service, VBS or gospel meeting was never missed. The family enjoyed Bible time at home together every week and everyone loved the ending of that night extremely well because everyone would pile on dad afterwards. Pouring God’s Word into her kids was a main priority of hers. The legacy of her faith is continually lived out in the faithful lives of all her children.

Ann always loved to help others. Her acts of kindness may have seemed small to some, but in the kingdom of God, they were huge. For many years, she sent World Bible School lessons and correspondence to inmates in Louisiana and Texas prisons. It was not uncommon for their vacation time to be linked with a campaign for Christ. 

She was a member of the Calhoun Church of Christ for many years and loved them deeply. From teaching Bible class, to helping hand out bags of food for the food bank, she was always willing to serve. She loved to can vegetables from her garden to give to her church family. She also loved to give rides to people that needed transportation to church.

Ann is survived by her brother, William Douglas Andrews; her sons: Lawrence Ray Loveland, Jr and his, Melody, Stephen Loveland and his wife, JoLee, William Loveland and his wife, LinDee, Richard Loveland and his wife, Wendy and daughter, Maryann Loveland Curran. She has thirteen grandchildren: Hannah Loveland, Andrew Loveland, Meagan Loveland and husband, Josh Bruno, Whitney Herrington and husband, Greg, Hunter Loveland and wife, Morgan, Travis Loveland and fiancé, Taylor, LinLee Loveland, Richie Loveland and wife, Emma, Susie Meadows and husband, Tom, Sam Loveland, Amanda Wuff and husband, Zach, Torie Robbins, Rachel Krut and husband, Caleb. She is blessed with eight great grandkids so far: Ruby and Rory Herrington, Eli and Molly Loveland, Liam and Michael Meadows, Matthew and Anna Wuff.
