Aunt Ann surrounds me everyday with all of the cute monogrammed things she's generously gotten for me. I was a hit at college because of her good taste. I love my Auntie Ann and Uncle Bob very much! You are always on my mind!

To Ann's family,
I have so many sweet memories of Ann at sorority events and slumber parties in high school. It was a joy to have her as a friend when going through our teens. She became such a pretty young woman. I think of her often and send you my sympathy.

Bob,
I went to school with Ann. She lived near me, and I remember her smiles and kindness. May the peace of Christ be yours as you adjust to life without her companionship.

Dearest Blinky,

It was with shock and great sadness that I read of Ann's passing. She was such a kind, special lady and she will live on in our hearts. Carl and I think of both of you so often.
You have always been a special friend and we were so happy you for you and Ann. Too bad we weren't in California at the same time. You have always been in our hearts and now, of course, in our prayers. We both wish we could be closer and offer our love and support in any way possible.

With deepest love,

Molly

To "Blinky"
I went to high school with Ann (and you) and Ann was my neighbor at 1531 Poplar until you were married and moved away. I know you will miss her. I have missed her since she moved away. We used to have some great parties in the back yard on Poplar.
