Hull, Anne 1916-2017 Born Anne Dalrymple, of John and Bernice Dalrymple in 1916, she was raised in Minneapolis along with older brother John and younger sister, Cynthia. In 1939, a year after graduating from Smith College, she married Hadlai Hull of New London, Connecticut. Their original attempt to establish a home in Manhattan was interrupted by WWII, during which Anne lived in Minneapolis near her parents. After the war, Wayzata became the family's home while Hadlai worked for the Minnesota and Ontario Paper Company and the Dayton Company. In 1971, after their three sons were out of the nest, life shifted to Washington, DC, where Hadlai worked for the Department of the Army, the Nature Conservancy, and the Conservation Fund. While in Washington, Anne ran the Hull Gallery specializing in 19th and 20th century American oils and prints. She served on the Boards of the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, Smith College, Planned Parenthood of Minnesota, and International Student House. In 2005, she and Hadlai returned to Wayzata, where she lived until her death. She and Hadlai were particularly grateful for the daily support they received from Becky Frederick and her staff of care givers. She was preceded in death by her husband of 72 years, Hadlai. She is survived by her three sons, Hadlai "Tex" (Susan), John, and Tom (Katharine). She leaves four grandchildren, Clifton (Melissa) Hull, Kathryn (John) Meek, Chase (Andrea Soule) Hull, and Andrea Hull and four great-grand-children, Alexandra Meek, Darien Hull, Clara Hull, and Charlotte Hull. Anne will be remembered for her graciousness, elegance, generosity and loving heart. Memorial service will be held at the Wayzata Community Church Chapel, 125 E Wayzata Blvd, in Wayzata on Friday March 3, 1 PM . Private interment at Lakewood Cemetery in Minneapolis.
