Dear Gene,
Dale and I are saddened to hear of Ann's passing. You were so close, we know you will miss her terribly. We wish we could express the sorrow we feel, just knowing you are bearing a loss so profound. May it comfort you and your family to know that we care. I will personally remember Ann for that beautiful warm smile. Her smile made an impression on me. I never seen her not smiling.

DEAR GENE AND FAMILY....FOND MEMORIES OF ANN WHEN I WAS PASTOR AT G.A...MY PRAYERS FOR YOU ALL...WITH LOVE AND PRAYERS FROM CROSSLAKE,MINN....FR. MIKE ARMS

April 2, 2011

Gene and family, Lowell and I are still in shock. We can't believe how fast Ann went. Knowing her for at least 55 years since I was a small child was a gift. The Lake Elmo community of over 50 years ago was a small, close knit community which was centered on Guardian Angels Church. I always saw Ann at church when I attended with my Grandmother Agnes Ondrey. I have lots of memories of you both as a young farm family, who often came to my Grandparents tavern to dance on Saturday night and visit with other neighbors. You had a wonderful life together, and a wonderful family who loved you both. All of us here in Mesa at the Wells, miss you both. God bless you all.
