Ann Oxner Bolton, 81, from Satellite Beach, Florida passed away on July 8, 2016 after a year-long battle with ovarian cancer. Ann was born August 7, 1934 in Augusta, Ga. She married her husband of 61 years on August 6, 1955 whom she met at her alma mater, the University of South Carolina. After earning her BS in Sociology and then a Master’s in Elementary Education she went on to become an elementary school teacher. She retired after 20 years of teaching from Sabal Elementary in Melbourne. Ann was a very active and integral member of Unity of Melbourne, a group that provided unwavering support during her illness. Ann’s greatest strength lay in her ability to help others to embrace their own light of being, to build their gifts and optimize their potential. She was an awesome cheerleader for those she loved and befriended. She is preceded in death by her parents William and Elma Oxner of Augusta, GA. She is survived by her husband, James Lindsay Bolton and four children, Laurie Bolton Davey (Mark) of Satellite Beach, FL, James Bradley Bolton (Betsey) of Dover, NH, Kristin Bolton Urquhart (Jim) of Orlando, FL and Jennifer Bolton Vaccaro of Orlando, FL .
