Dearest Annie, Life seems so grey and dreary without you. The price for our love is grief. I need the sun to shine again. I am so happy that you are free from all that pain. Lovingly, DannyBoy

Mom, I miss you so much and think about you everyday. I still shake my head in disbelief that you aren't here for me to call...to tell you the latest 'funny' created by your adorable granddaughters. Stay with me, Mom...just let me feel you here every once in a while. I love you.

Ann was such a bright and friendly spirit at the front desk at Second Baptist Church. She made all the secretaries look so proficient with her tireless and endless help. Friday's won't ever be the same. We loved you and miss you, Ann!

Dan, Becky, Chuck,
My heartfelt sympathy is extended to your family. I know what it's like to have your mom pass away. Ann was a wonderful parent who was involved in her children's education at Dumbarton. I'll always remember the day when she and Becky drove to my house for a visit, only to be chased from the back door to the front door by honeybees from the beehive in the back yard. Memories will keep Ann alive in your heart.
