Ms. Annie Mae Carey was born July 10, 1937 in Tampa, to Katherine B. Carey and Mose Carey and passed away on Octo- ber 20, 2016 in Tampa. She was married to John Blair who pre- ceded her in death.
Annie Mae grew up in Tampa where she graduated from Mid- dleton High School. After grad- uating from Gibbs Junior College, she attended Florida A & M College (now University) where she graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Elemen- tary Education. She later earned a Master’s Degree in El- ementary Education at the Uni- versity of South Florida in Tampa, FL.
Annie Mae taught elemen- tary school in the public school system of Hillsborough County where she retired after serving young people for more than 36 years. She dedicated her entire professional career to strength- ening young minds both intel- lectually and socially to prepare them for the future they would eventually face. Her primary goal for each student she taught was to increase their capacity to achieve their full educational and personal potential.
Annie Mae genuinely loved and cared about both the stu- dents and their families.
Annie Mae loved and cared for her family only as she could do. She loved to cook for family and friends and frequently did so, sometimes while fussing about having to cook for so many people and loving it at the same time. She was a dedicated member of the Charmettes for almost 35 years and frequently tried to recruit others to join so that they too could help im- prove the quality of life of the community in which they lived.
She was a member of Re- Birth Missionary Baptist Church, where she served the Lord and her community through various missions, in- cluding Charmettes.
