Not sure what to say?

I am so sorry and shocked to hear this news. Ann was so vibrant and I loved working with her on her photos. My heart goes out to you all. I hope your memories are keeping you on a healing path. Meryl Schenker

My husband and I were shocked to hear this week of Ann's death-she was our financial advisor for many years and we enjoyed the many and varied conversations with her. She was a warm, vibrant woman whose obvious intelligence came through in every interaction. She was especially supportive to me during my own struggle with breast cancer and I am sad that I couldn't have supported her in the same way. She, and her family are in our prayers.

My deepest sympathy for her family. I am thankful to have known her and have many wonderful memories of being riding with her as well as enjoying yoga and family times years gone by. I was deeply saddened to hear she is no longer enjoying life but do remember her doing it so well. Her kindness toward me and my memory of my son a few years ago will be a lingering one. Thank you Buckley family. Most sincerely, Dana

I will be thinking of you and your family during this time of grieving. I have fond memories of chatting with you and Ann (and the dogs) when we were neighbors on Water Street. No words are adequate in times like this.

All my sympathy goes out to you and your family at this difficult time in your lives. May you find solace in the face that our Heavenly Father knows what you are going through. He is greater than our hearts and knows all things. (1 John 3:20) Continue to rely on him for strength during this difficult time that you are enduring.

Ann was our friend, neighbor, and financial adviser. We watched her raise her kids in the South Capitol Neighborhood; we worked together as friends to make our community better; and she helped us professionally in our financial affairs. She coached our three kids in track at St. Mike's helping them to be team players and stronger people. Ann was a great human being and we will miss her! Love and prayers to Brett, Micki, and Rian.

Brett, Ryan and Michelle: I worked right in front of her since she arrived at Wells Fargo Advisors from Morgan Stanley. Mark and I recently left to work elsewhere but were shocked to hear of her passing. I too thought that she had cancer beat, if anyone could, I believed she could. I have vivid memories of Ann and her work ethic which I admired very much. Sitting outside her office, I was treated to her seemingly boundless energy. I witnessed her dedication to performing at her best effort...

Dear Brett & Family:

Peter and I were so sorry to hear about Ann's illness and passing. We always admired her and know how much vitality and zeal she had for adventure. It was always fun to run in to her and hear about some new neat thing she was doing. We're deeply sorry for the loss of this special woman. Thinking of you.
