RALEIGH -- Anne Budine Simpson, 65, passed away into the presence of the Lord on Monday, October 30, 2006, at Wake Medical Center, Raleigh. Anne was born in Walton, NY on May 1, 1941 to the late Gerdon and Anne Budine. She was a graduate of Walton High School and lived in Sidney, NY until 1967. In 1993, she retired as cafeteria manager for Durham Life Insurance in Raleigh. She was baptized in 1974 at Belair Baptist Church in Bowie, MD and was a very strong Christian. Over the years, she has taught children's Sunday school and arranged countless church dinners, using her renowned cooking talents. In 2004, she received WTVD ABC 11's Jefferson Award Certificate of Recognition for her hard work and commitment to improving the quality of life in her community. At her passing she was co-leader of the education team and moderator of the board of deacons at Westminster Presbyterian Church in Raleigh. In 1979, she joined the Auxiliary of The Gideons International, and served for many years in nearly every office, including Auxiliary President of the Raleigh North camp. Anne had a legion of friends, and loved them all. She will be deeply missed by her family and by the many people whose lives she has touched over the years. She was everyone's best friend, confidante, and "other Mom" -always willing to lend her undivided attention and sympathetic ear. She was an inspiration to all who knew her. A memorial service will be held at Westminster Presbyterian Church, 301 East Whitaker Mill Road, Raleigh, NC at 1 p.m. Saturday, November 4, 2006, following which the family will receive friends. Her husband of 46 years, Patrick Simpson, and three children, David Simpson and Thomas Simpson of Raleigh, Diana Feaver of Mahopac, NY, survive her. Her daughter, Patricia Simpson, predeceased her in 2001. Anne also leaves behind three sisters, Lucille Dewey and Kay King of Sidney Center, NY and Marian Striesse of Hartwick, NY; two brothers, Robert Budine of Davenport, NY, John Budine of Oneonta, NY. One of her greatest pleasures was being grandmother to her five grandchildren: Michael, Krystal, Alexis, Raven and Charlie. She lives on in an entire community of people who love and admire her.
