Margaret Ann Ford

Margaret "Ann" Ford, passed away peacefully at home on July 19,2026, at the age of 82 in Sapulpa, Oklahoma. Born on May 26, 1944, in Fanshawe, Oklahoma, Ann was the loving daughter of the late J.W. and Bertha Branscum.
At the young age of 14, Ann married Joe Junior Ford. They married on January 24, 1958. They were happily married, just shy of 64 years. They had two cherished daughters, Kathy Elaine and Pamela Ann.
Though it had been a while since she was able to attended due to health, Ann was a devoted member of West Side Free Will Baptist Church. She gave her life to the Lord at a young age and liver her life like Jesus through her actions and unwavering love and support for her family. We all called her Granny. She has the gift of gab and could talk for hours on the phone with family or outside with her neighbors. She was the best, always willing to lend a listening ear or a helping hand with a song in her heart. It didn't matter what she was doing, she may break out singing a hymn at any given time. She was able to laugh at herself and be silly, but she was also a hard worker and natural caretaker. She worked alongside her husband at any task they had going and later in life took care of him during his difficult health journey until he met Jesus. She was a faithful wife.
Granny could be so humorous even when it wasn't intentional, but she could also be brutally honest at times. Granny loved you no matter what, unless you did not keep your yard mowed, then she was likely to get on to you and ask if you needed any help with that too. She truly enjoyed the outdoors, fishing, gardening, and planting flowers. She was known for her roses and azaleas back in the day.
She loved her family wholeheartedly. Throughout the years, all the grandkids loved going to Pa and Granny's house. There was wisdom and opinions given, but somehow you always left feeling better. It became home. Welcoming beds with quilts, toys to play with, home-cooked suppers, deli meat and cheese for sandwiches at noon, sweet tea, and plenty of snacks. If you didn't like tea, there were Cokes and Blue Bell vanilla ice cream. Kids especially brought happiness to Granny. She helped babysit some of her great grandkids as they grew up and even got to enjoy watching her great-great grandkids play. Most of Granny's life she was a homemaker, but occasionally she had to work off and on at various jobs including the school cafeteria, Fabricut, and Anthony's Department Store where she could pick out men's dress clothes better than anyone around, often getting request from costumers, but her greatest joy and "job" was her family.
She is preceded in death by her parents; husband Joe Junior Ford; brothers, Billy Joe, Johnny Ray, Jerry Dean, and Glen Herbert Branscum, one sister, Betty Ruth Muse, and two great granddaughters.
Ann leaves behind her two daughters, Kathy Crocker and Pamela Harsh and her husband, Mike, 4 grandkids and their spouses, 10 great grandkids, 3 great-great grandkids and a host of other family and friends. She made a forever impact on our lives and will be greatly missed.
