Ancy Loucille (Tone) Morse died May 3, 2025, at The Homestead Senior Living Facility in Rochester, MN. She lost her battle with cancer, but her sharp mind and wit never faded. A small-town girl at heart, Ancy was born in Bemidji, MN, on March 8, 1935, and spent her childhood in International Falls, MN. Living in far northern Minnesota, she did some hunting as a girl and loved Rainy Lake: fishing and swimming in the summers, skating and other (very) cold weather activities in the winter.
