Anne Ferguson Washington

Anne F. Washington DANVILLE - Anne Ferguson Washington passed away at the age of 81 on September 4, 2020. She was born September 24, 1938, in LaGrange, Georgia, the daughter of John Ferguson, Sr. and Lucile Logan Ferguson. Anne loved her family and was a devoted mother and grandmother. A lifelong learner, she was skilled at gardening, fishing, sewing, cooking, and other endeavors. She traveled the highways and byways of her beloved home state of Georgia with her late husband, Vernon, marking every route they took on a well-worn Georgia atlas. Anne was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in early 2019 and she dealt bravely and graciously with treatment until it was time to let go – which she also did bravely, and graciously. She died at home, in hospice care, surrounded by her children. She was preceded in death by her husband Albert Vernon Washington and her two brothers, John Ferguson, Jr., and Charles Ferguson. Anne is survived by her children LuAnne Holladay (Bill Holladay), John Clark, and Amy Washington DuBois (the late Brent DuBois). She is also survived by grandchildren Madison Clark and Brynleigh Clark; Seth DuBois, Beau DuBois, AJ DuBois, and Jermey Brown. Throughout treatment and then in hospice care, Anne was supported by a compassionate team of caregivers at Georgia Cancer Specialists in Macon, and by Compassus of Macon. She also found comfort in her beloved dog Jinxy, who was a constant presence at her side. In this time of pandemic, the family will not have a public visitation, and the memorial service will be very small, for family only. Per Anne’s wishes, in lieu of flowers, please consider donations to the American Cancer Society, to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, or to Compassus of Macon.
