Anne Therese Armbruster

Anne Therese Armbruster, 89, of Indianapolis left this earth to be with her Bob and her God on October 27, 2021.

Anne was born on January 5, 1932 to Ralph Joseph and Elizabeth Ann (Daly) Jansen. Anne was a devoted wife to Bob Armbruster, mother to 9 children and their honeys, Grama to 32 grandchildren and their honeys, and GG to 31 great-grandchildren. She was an unstoppable force who loved her God, her family, and her southside community in that order. She supported her honeys, grandhoneys, and great grandhoneys in everything they did with a passion and enthusiasm that couldn’t be matched. There is not a person who met Anne that didn’t come to love her. She gave hugs (with “2 arms, no patting”) that could cure all ills and her birthday and anniversary phone calls made every recipient feel like family.

Anne will be missed by all who knew her, but most especially her children: Stephen (Patty) Armbruster, Mary (Dan) Tieken, Daniel (Nancy) Armbruster, Beth (Mike) Mislan, Suzanne (Gregg) Bennett, Rosanne (Lee) Strevels, Michael (Jeanne) Armbruster, Robert (Marijane) Armbruster, and Estelle (Mark) Britner, her 32 grandchildren and their spouses whom she loved as her own, her 31 great-grandchildren, her sister: Estelle (Richard) Redoutey, her sister-in-law: Joan Armbruster, her brother-in-law: Bernard Eagan, and her many beloved nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews.

She was preceded in death by the love of her life: Bob, her father and mother: Ralph and Elizabeth, her brothers: Paul and Joe Jansen, her sister: Mary Eagan

We now celebrate that Anne can truly “go with our Lord…every day in every way”. Anne's Celebration of Life, Visitation will be Thursday November 4, 2021 from 4-8pm at O'Riley Funeral Home, 6107 S.
