She was born on August 18, 1930 to James Malcolm and Jeanette Killough Hudnall in New Albany. She married the love of her life, the late W.A. “Tode” Gillentine. Mrs. Ann had a great career with Reed’s Department Store in downtown Tupelo. She was Cosmetics Department Manager, then worked the ladies department until her recent retirement just six months ago after fifty years of service.

She was a sweet soul with a giving heart who loved sharing her flowers and garden vegetables with friends and family. Mrs. Ann was known for her beautiful flower arrangements displayed outside Reed’s Department Store. She enjoyed spending time with her family and friends, and her beloved cats. Prior to her failing health, Mrs. Ann attended Wildwood Baptist Church in Tupelo. Survivors include her son, Al Gillentine of Tupelo and several nieces. She was preceded in death by her husband, W.A. “Tode” Gillentine; her parents, James Malcolm and Jeanette Killough Hudnall; and two sisters, Marie Burleson and Virginia Rose.
