In Memory of Ann Marshall Nace
August 29, 1936 - April 23, 2020
Ann Nace, a long-time resident of Wabasso beach, passed away on April 23, 2020 from COVID pneumonia. She was 83 years old and had just celebrated her 63rd Wedding Anniversary to her spouse, Paul Nace. Her family will miss her greatly.
Ann was born in Paducah, Kentucky and spent her married life in Laurel, Maryland raising her two sons, Randy and Doug. Upon retirement in 1990, she and her husband Paul moved to Wabasso Beach. Ann was very active on the Coralstone Social Committee and also volunteered at the St. Vincent De Paul Thrift Shop as well as the Environmental Learning Center gift shop.
For over 30 years, visits from her sons and granddaughters always included trips to the Environmental Learning Center to explore the boardwalks, rent kayaks or take a pontoon boat ride on the Indian River Estuary. Ann cherished this beautiful resource and wanted to share it with others.
Her family has requested memorial gifts to the Environmental Learning Center in her honor, to help preserve this resource and to educate future generations on its beauty and value.
