Ann Amelia Radeackar

Radeackar, Ann Amelia (nee Friebel) of Cedar Hill, Missouri, was born June 26, 1954 in St. Louis, Missouri to William and Viola (nee Burgan) Friebel and entered into rest Wednesday, September 13, 2023 in Cedar Hill, Missouri at the age of 69 years. She is preceded in death by her parents: William and Viola (nee Burgan) Friebel. She is survived by her loving husband: George “Jerry” Radeackar, her daughter: Katie Ann Potter (Teddy), three (3) grandchildren: Magnus Potter, George Potter, and August Potter, her brother: William Friebel (Karen), along with numerous extended family and friends. Ann was a devoted wife, dedicated mother, incredible grandmother, and a beloved sister. She loved spending time with her family and creating amazing memories with her grandchildren, all who meant the world to her. Ann cherished a beautiful life of 47 years with her adoring husband Jerry. She enjoyed being involved in the family-owned grocery store, Radeackar’s Market, working alongside Jerry, demonstrating their faithful partnership. Ann possessed a rare and innate ability to take any material and make it into something special. From intricate wedding dresses to Halloween costumes for her grandchildren, each sewing project was a reflection of how much love she had for her family and friends. Ann also enjoyed shopping for antiques to enhance her farmhouse that held a special place in her heart. She was a teacher of many talents, including woodworking projects and even basket weaving. Over the years, Ann had many interests and was involved in a wide variety of activities. Always active, she loved riding motorcycles and three wheelers, enjoyed waterskiing, and had a passion for roller-skating, even playing on a roller hockey team. You could often find Ann roller skating with her grandchildren after Radeackar’s Market closed for the evening. Ann’s sense of humor was frequently her way of showing affection. She had a genuine ability to use her wit with a bit of an ornery side, showing she cared for others. Many memories will be associated with her humor and the stories will carry on with her family for years to come. There are no amount of words to describe how devoted Ann was to her family and friends. She was dedicated and selfless, always putting others before herself. Ann will be fondly remembered and dearly missed by all who knew and loved her. A Private Family Graveside Service will be held on Tuesday, September 19, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. at Chapel Hill Memorial Gardens, 6300 Highway 30, Cedar Hill, Missouri 63016.
