Annabelle Vanbibber Obituary

May 7, 1961 – January 13, 2025

 Annabelle Vanbibber, a devoted mother, grandmother, and cherished friend, passed away peacefully on January 13, 2025, at the age of 63.

 Annabelle was born on May 7, 1961, in Torrance, California, and grew up in Wilmington, where she forged lifelong friendships and embraced the vibrant spirit of her community. She spent most of her life in Long Beach in Her Favorite Place, a street where she built a home filled with warmth, love, and cherished memories. In her later years, she resided in Lake Elsinore, California, where she enjoyed quiet mornings and the beauty of the surrounding hills.

 A woman of remarkable strength and unshakable kindness, Annabelle was the heart of her family. Her greatest joy was her role as a mother and grandmother. She gave freely of her time, her wisdom, and her boundless love, nurturing not only her children but all who were fortunate to know her. Her home was always open, her table always welcoming, and her laughter a comfort to many.

 Annabelle will be remembered for her compassionate spirit, her sharp wit, and her devotion to those she loved. She found joy in the simple pleasures of life—whether it was watching her children play on the beach, a lively conversation with friends, or quiet moments spent surrounded by family.

Annabelle is now reunited in heaven with her beloved parents Annie and Richard Tyndall and her cherished son Little Jerry, finding eternal peace in their loving embrace.

She is survived by her children Lynne, son in law Virgil, Richard(Ricky),daughter in law Jessie, Brandi, Buffie, son in law Mauricio, step daughter Misty, her grandchildren Christopher, Gerald, Noah, Adriana, Victoria, Tommy, little Jessie, Lillianna, Karina, Aryle, Zander, and circle of dear friends who will carry forward her legacy of love, warmth, and generosity.
