This was NOT what I was hoping to find upon Googling Ann. Sorry to hear she went home, but glad to know that's where she went. She was a great girl. Snazziest dresser I ever knew. Worked with her at the treacherous offices of A Friendly Answer. She was a wonderful woman, and the world is a worse place for her not being in it.
