Not sure what to say?

I recall going to see "MarthAnn" about moving off campus when I was a sophomore ... she had many words of sage advice but what stuck with me was "well, if you get out there fall down and skin your knee, just come on back and I'll put a bandaide on it for you." That was her way of saying that she would be supportive of me whether I lived in the dorm or not.

She was such a loving supporter of everyone. I was saddened to learn of her passing.

My sympathy goes out to the family during your time of grief. May God's loving-kindness comfort you and help you through this difficult time. (Psalm 119:50,76)

At BBH we called her Mac. She had bright red hair, freckles, loved to play golf and was our best friend. Bless her, she even lived in the dorm. In 1988 she became my boss at Samford university. Her desk was always clean and neat. However, she had piles of papers under her desk. Mac you will be missed, but we will all be seeing you in heaven in the years to come.

Oh, how I loved you, Miss Ann. I am glad you can tell my little boy any funny story about me you like! Blessings to your family.

Dean Cox was a first class act, a genuine person who loved people. I am happy i had the pleasure of knowing her. She made Samford a better place!

Rest om Peace Ms Co. You will be missed.

I am sorry for the loss of my friend. Holding all of you close in thought and prayer.

All the BBH students who were fortunate enough to have her as our guidance counselor are better people for having known this wise, witty, wonderful woman. She will be remembered fondly by many people.

She touched multitudes wherever she went, especially at her beloved alma mater, Samford University. We who knew her as a child until she died are proud of her and her accomplishments. However, we, like she, know that our Father in Heaven is the one to whom we give all glory for her life and her service for the Lord.
