Obituary of Anna Jean Raybourne Funk

Anna Jean Raybourne Funk, age 74, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, May 3, 2022 after a long battle with cancer.  She entered into rest with her daughter at her bedside and was surrounded by family in her last days.

She was born October 30, 1947 in Moncks Corner, South Carolina.  She dedicated many years as a public school secretary and a private school teacher, but mostly as a devoted wife and mother.  Her love for God was very evident and because of this, we are comforted knowing that she has been welcomed into Heaven and is with God and many loved ones who preceded her.  She will be greatly missed by those who knew and loved her.

She is survived by her daughter, Stacia Dobbins (Gene Hammet), her step-son “Walker” Miller Funk, III (Sherry), three grandchildren, Kimberly Williams (Brannigan), Scott Betcher, Emily Betcher (Josh Cisneros), two sisters-in-law, Pat Raybourne and Sandi Perry, step-brother, Tommy Hinson (Bonnie), step-sister-in-law, Sally Hinson, brother-in-law, Ray Duncan, and many other extended family members.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Walker “Miller” Funk, Jr., father, James William Raybourne, mother, Annie Rose Hinson, step-father, Raymond Lee Hinson, father-in-law “Walker” Miller Funk, Sr., mother-in-law, Theresa Funk, brother, J. W. “Bill” Raybourne,. step-sister, Carole Hill, step-brother, Andy Hinson, sister-in-law, Terry Ann Duncan, brother-in-law, Nicky Funk, and many other extended family members.

Family and friends are invited to gather in her memory at St. Stephen Episcopal Church, 196 Brick Church Cir., St. Stephen, SC 29479 on Saturday, June 4, 2022 at 11:00 am.  If so inclined, condolences can be made at the church for the gathering or by donation in her honor to any cancer charity of your choice.
