Anne Beil, devoted volunteer
Anne E. Beil loved to be around people.
She constantly surrounded herself with family and friends, and she never made anyone feel out of place.
"She was one of the happiest people I've ever known, and she made sure everyone around her was happy," said Mrs. Beil's daughter, Connie Beil of Lighthouse Point, Fla.

"She went to volunteer at St. Charles Care Center so she could be with her mother," her daughter said. "After her mother died, she continued to help out down there because she just loved being there. She was a complete people person.
