I never saw that much of Ann, but when our paths crossed, there was always that smile. After meeting her the first time, she made a major impression on me. I was so sadden to hear of her passing. She was truly a wonderful person. May she rest in peace.

I was fortunate enough to have Ms. Watlington as my teacher for first and fifth grade in the 80's. She would not allow me to be average she challenged me to do my best. She is one of the most beautiful people I have had the pleasure of meeting. She will always be remembered as my favorite teacher. May God bless the Watlington family!

I may not be a Watlington but to me Ann was family, the sister I never had. She is and always will be my Wonderful Sweet Spirit Soul Sister. A Beautiful giving caring Being of Light and Love. Strong, Loyal, Courageous, Spirited the true meaning of the word Friend, Mother, Sister, Woman. She made someone far from home feel right at home and welcome. Truly a Blessing to have had her as part of my life and so grateful for the time we spent together on this journey. I may no longer be able to touch her in this dimension but I still feel her presence in every Dragonfly, Birdsong, Puppy Dog's face, Cat's meow,Crow in Flight, Flickering candle and Whisper of the Wind. I know I will hold her again in time and we will laugh together and speak of old times and play with the Angels in God's Light.
My thoughts, prayers and love are with Carson, Judy, Sam and all Her beloved pets at this time of sadness. I hope sweet happy memories and knowing how much she meant to so many will give comfort. Love you all. Love Peace Joy and Light. Angela

Ann and I became friends while at U of R. She was so friendly, charming, and had an amazing magnetic personality. Everyone loved Ann! We both were history lovers though she was a serious student, unlike myself. I will always remember this wonderful girl, and pray for blessings on her family and friends.

A classmate from Westhampton College of the University of Richmond, and a dear friend has left us, but she remains with us in spirit. We will miss Ann's warmth, smiles and love that flowed from her heart, and she presented her caring and compassionate nature to all those who had the privilege and pleasure of knowing her.
