Ann Martin Carroll

Dear Bob and Family,

I was reading the Observer this morning, and my heart was saddened when I saw Ann's name. I went online and checked the Courant's obituaries and saw her picture and said "yes, that’s Ann", always with a smile...I am so sorry.

I have thought of Ann often over the years. One of many things that make me think of her is when I receive a schedule of the SSO, that was her doing. The first time I went was because of the two of you. I remember back then...

Dear Bob and family,
Ann and I had years of fun and laughs together...right up to a few days before the 9th. Our home has many gifts from Ann....from potholders to pillowcases to a quilt!! What a constant, beautiful reminder of the wonderful person she was. I do praise God for taking Ann home. Just think, we will all be in heaven together again someday. My prayers will be with you all for God's strength, peace and direction in the days ahead.
Love, Dianne Grosz

Dear Bob, Tommy and Patty
I can't express how I felt when I received your news about Ann. I can't think of anyone else that was more kind, open minded, supportative, and loving than Ann. She will be very much missed back here in Suffield, Ct. If there were more women like Ann Carroll the world would be a much better place. The girls and I are very sorry for your loss, but how lucky you were to have her all this time. Love and miss you all.

Ann's presence in our lives made us all richer. Her strength and courage in the face of illness made us stronger in our own battles. We grieve and miss our dear friend but find comfort in His assurance that we will be together again before Him in Glory. God's blessings upon Bob and Ann's entire family.

Tom, Shannon and kids,
We are so sorry to hear about your loss. If there is anything we can do please let us know. You are in our prayers during this difficult time.
With our sympathy,
Roger, Liz, Cody and Colton Creasy
