I taught with Ann for several years at North Caddo High School. She was the most caring, most respected, and hardest working teacher that I have had the honor to work with in my career. She was dedicated to the learning needs of every student she taught. She was a wonderful woman. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

I taught with Ann for 12 years at North Caddo. She was the best Special Ed teacher I’d ever seen. She was so patient and truly cared about her students. They were blessed to have her. Sending condolences to her family.

I am sorry to read this. I worked with Mrs. Bounds years ago at North Caddo. She was a very nice, soft spoken and genuine person and a caring teacher. "Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning."

The Final Salute

“Brothers and Sisters in Arms”, Military men and women down through the centuries, have traditionally exchanged “Hand Salutes” as a sign of recognition and as a way to render courtesy and respect one to another.

This “Hand Salute” is the last that we shall render to Mrs. Ann Preston Willett Bounds a loving U.S. Air Force wife who provided dedicate service to her country, her community and her family. To her family it symbolizes the love and respect that we have for Ann. To Ann it is rendered as a symbol of honor and gratitude to thank her for her devotion to her husband, her family, the U.S. Air Force and her country. Only a military wife knows the difficulties and great sacrifices associated with rearing a military family that relocated frequently and often included long separations from the one they loved most and anxious moments of concern for their safety. Ann, we bid you a sad farewell. You will be dearly missed from among our ranks. Be at ease. Rest in Peace.

On behalf of the 935 military veteran Legionnaires of Lowe-McFarlane Post 14 of the American Legion and the 423 veterans of VFW Post 4588, we extend our sympathies and our condolences to Ann’s family and loved ones.
