It was a pleasure knowing Ann during her stay at Chandler Hall. She was a beautiful soul with a warm and kind heart. I always looked forward to chatting with her about her family; she also insisted that I slow down and take care of myself. Ann enjoyed playing trivia and word games, attending special events, and reading People Magazine. The residents and staff loved her because of her kindness. I will dearly miss her. Ralph

Ann was such a kind, sweet lady. We really miss her at Chandler Hall. I'm so sorry for your loss. I always loved stopping in and talking with her. She loved talking about her family especially her great grandchildren. She would always show me the new photos of family that she had displayed and the little gifts the kids would make for her. It was such an honor getting to know her. She was a wonderful lady.

Ann was my Moms roommate at Chandler Hall. My sister and I loved to visit with her when we were visiting with our Mom. She was always upbeat and positive. She was so kind to my Mom and a great comfort to her all of the time. We are so sorry for your loss.
