Myrtle Ann Brewer Easley Allen, 84, of Tyler, Texas went to be with our Lord on January 25, 2025.

Ann was born to James E. & Pearl Brewer on September 1, 1940, in Chandler, Texas. After the death of her mother, she was adopted by Irvin D. & Viola Easley of Tyler, Texas in April 1951. Ann was raised in the Dixie Community and attended Pleasant Retreat United Methodist Church. She graduated from the first class of John Tyler High School in 1959. 

Ann met the love of her life, Ronald Allen, at age 12, married at 19, and celebrated 64 wonderful years together last June 18th.  After marriage, they lived in Austin, Texas while Ron finished college. Upon graduation, they moved to Dallas, where they built a wonderful life and made many friends. In 1981, after working for years in the local elementary school as a building aide, Ann decided to go back to college. Ann earned both her BS and Masters in Special Education from East Texas State. She taught Special Education in Mesquite and then in Fort Bend County schools for many years.
