Ann Looper Pryor

Dear Ann, You were the first person to believe in me at my first "big girl" job. You made me feel seen and brought me so much joy at work! I know you are in a better place now. Enjoy your rest. -Crystal Waters Simmons

Absolutely heartbroken. My best friend in high school. We lost touch be reconnected several years ago. The world is a darker place without Ann. My thoughts and prayers are with her family, especially Greg and their sweet pups.

She saw in me what I did and would not let me stay in my comfort zone. Thank you.

We are shocked and saddened to read of Ann's passing. I met Ann and Greg when they lived in DC, Greg and Mark worked together. Ann was such a gracious hostess and made everyone she met feel important wherever she was. Our hearts break for Greg, all her family and friends. May Ann's memory be a blessing.

I worked closely with Ann when I interned for the alumni association at CofC. Words can´t explain how impressive she was, both as a professional and as a human being. I´m lucky to have remained in touch with her as an alum. She was so kind, influential and radiant. The world will miss her light, and my heart aches for those who loved her. My heart goes out to Greg and her family.

I cannot believe this news. Total shock. Ann and I were close in college and stayed in touch through FB over the years. She always made sure to reach out to me when C of C was having some kind of function. Both of us are native South Carolinians and she was truly a southern bell. We need so many more of those. God be with you Ann and your husband Greg. So devastating.

I worked with Greg in DC but didn't know Ann at that time. My job transferred me to Charleston where I was able to reconnect with Greg. I had the wonderful privilege of meeting Ann when they invited me to their lovely home for Sunday Brunch. She is the consummate Southern Lady and I'm so honored that I had the opportunity the meet her. My deepest condolences to Greg and all those impacted by the loss of this amazing lady.
