Ann E. Wiseman

August 24, 1961 - June 12, 2021

Ann E. Wiseman of NLR went to be with the Lord on June 12, 2021 at the age of 59. Ann was born on August 24, 1961, Jack and Sue Wiseman and raised in Searcy. An avid pianist in her youth, Ann played for church events at First United Methodist Church, as well as family gatherings. After graduating from Searcy High School in 1979, Ann spent a few years in Texas before finding her place in North Little Rock. Ann was an attentive daughter and would return home for holidays. She loved attending Easter and Christmas Eve candlelight services with her father. She was an independent and fun-loving person who enjoyed gummy bears and, for many years, would go skiing on Easter Sunday. She was always up for a good practical joke. Ann’s quick wit and good humor always brought laughs to any room. Ann adored her two African gray parrots, Lukas and Lakota and lovingly gave noisy gifts that resembled birds to her great-nieces. Ann loved her job at Hydco General Contractor in North Little Rock where she worked for the past eight years and was a partner. She was preceded in death by her parents and brother, James Clark Wiseman. Ann leaves behind her brother Daniel Wiseman of Searcy (Linda), sister Sarah Wiseman-Ford of Searcy (David), three nieces Ashlee Rowland of Watauga, TX (William), Lauren Schrepfer of Searcy (Blake), Eden Sherman of Searcy (Daryle), one nephew Matthew Wiseman of Searcy, six great-nieces, four cousins, and honorary family Josh Zajac (Nicole) and Shannon Deleon (Bruce) and their children. Memorials may be made to the Little Rock Zoo; please specify funds to be used for the aviary. A memorial service celebrating Ann's life will be held at Powell Funeral Home in Searcy on Thursday, July 15, 2021 at 2:00 p.m. Arrangements by Powell Funeral Home of Searcy. www.powellfuneralhome.net
