Anne Marie Moe, age 71 of Lakeland, MN, passed away Sunday, October 1st, 2023 at Regions Hospital in St. Paul, MN surrounded by her loving family.  Anne was born on August 25, 1952 in Glenwood City, WI to Merril and Lucille (Jackelen) Wink.  Anne had a remarkable childhood being raised on the farm, where she created many lasting memories with her brothers and sisters.  She attended Glenwood City High School and graduated with the class of 1970.  Anne then met the love of her life, Roger Moe.  They were united in marriage on June 24, 1972 at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church in Glenwood City.  Anne and Roger settled in Lakeland, MN where their union was further blessed with three sons. The boys kept them busy with sports, cars, and their crazy antics which tested their patience.  Regardless, they raised them to be strong, loving, and caring men.

Anne spent most of her years working as an executive assistant at 3M and retired in 2019. Anne had a very strong faith that helped guide her through life.  She enjoyed cheering on her favorite sports teams, especially the Green Bay Packers, gardening and meticulously taking care of her lawn and most importantly, spending time with her family.  Her grandchildren meant the world to her and she was very involved in their lives, going to their sporting events, school programs, and helping them out in any way she could.  She had a witty sense of humor and was always making light of life’s situations.  She lived her life to help others and was the most giving and supportive person you could find.  She would always place others’ needs before her own.  Without a doubt, Anne touched countless lives with her selflessness and unconditional love, and she will remain in our hearts forever.

Anne is lovingly survived by her sons Jason (Janine), Brad (Samantha), and Eric (Stephanie); grandchildren, Kylie, Somara, Brecken, Aubrey, Cullen, and Afton; step-grandson Josh Dierickx; great-granddaughters Skylar and Kylie; brothers Ed (Bonnie) Wink, Tom (Judy) Wink, Jack Wink; sisters, Pat (Tom) Lewis, Dori (Randy) Thompson, Bernadette (Rick) Forbes; mother-in-law Roberta “Birdie” Moe; brother-in-laws Dennis Mahoney, Steve (Sue) Nelson, and Brian Moe; sister-in-laws Sharon (Duane) Gross, Jean Hoppe, Linda (Cornie) Zevenbergen, Sheila Moe, Rita (Dick) Cassellius, and Mary Pat (Kevin) Weeks.

She is preceded in death by her husband Roger; parents Merril “Bud” and Lucille (Jackelen) Wink; sisters Sharon Nelson, Mary Mahoney; brothers Robert Wink and infant brother John Wink and infant sister Josephine Wink; father-in-law Eldred “Bud” Moe; and brother-in-law Bob Moe.
