Ann Gilmer Memoriam

In Loving Memory of Ann H. GILMER December 8, 1932 July 9, 2008
God loaned you to us because you were what we needed. When your work was done he called you home, no matter how much we pleaded. The pain in our hearts will one day cease, because we feel your spirit and know you're at peace.
We love you and miss you dearly,
Charlotte, Heywood, Gerry & Chris

Gerry, Charlotte, Chris and Heywood:
What a wonderful picture of Ann! Whenever I envision Ann, I see her with a huge smile and a burst of laughter. One could not be around Ann without laughing and feeling uplifted. She brought pure joy to her family and friends. I, too, miss Ann, but I also celebrate her life by laughing loudly, loving unabashedly, and giving generously. That is how Ann lived and that is how I will remember her.

Much love and respect,

To Gerry and Family;
When the wind blows you will feel her, when you hear the birds singing you will hear her voice saying I love you. When you see the morning sun rise in the easton sky and feel its warmth, it is her loving arms wrapping you in all her love and showing you with all of God's grace and mercies.

Be Bless I LOU
