Catherine Williamson Veitch, 80, of San
Antonio, Texas passed away on October 3,
2020. |

Anne was born on
June 29, 1940 in Amarillo, Texas. Growing up the
daughter of a U.S. Air Force officer afforded
Anne the opportunity to live in many places
around the world, including Formosa, Hong Kong,
and Japan, as well as in many cities around the
U.S. She was a cherished daughter, wife, mother,
grandmother and great grandmother, but above
all, Anne was endlessly devoted to her husband
and family, all of whom adored her. |
|
Anne loved to
travel but was also passionate about making her
house a home and often decorated with memorable
items from her adventures. She particularly
loved the many girls' trips taken with her
daughters and always made sure they resulted in
countless, lasting memories. She lived life to
the fullest and brought much joy to her friends
and family. Anne was a duplicate bridge player
most of her adult life and was a founder or
member of several duplicate bridge groups, which
gave her the opportunity to spend time with her
many bridge playing friends. |
|
Anne was also an
ardent dog lover and rescued many through the
years, including those that were blind or in ill
health. She cared greatly about her community
and served as a volunteer and volunteer
coordinator with San Antonio Hospice during the
1980s and spent many years on the Dominion
Architecture Control Committee. |
