Psalm 90:10 says that the days of our years are 70 years, And if because of special mightiness they are 80 years.
May the memories of the wonderful times you shared together bring a smile and joy in your heart.

My love and prayers are with you all! Ann was a very sweet lady and everyone always enjoyed her cooking. My memories of her and Bobby are from the early days at Mt. Lebanon on Wednesday night supper. Bobby would stand at the door looking forward to telling everyone about the spread she had prepared that night (or maybe he knew how much I enjoyed her meals; I can still see his smile and how proud he was of her in my head)! She will be dearly missed by all! She loved with all that was in her and was a strong pillar to her family and community. You could always count on Ann to cook for you if you had a need! I am praying you feel God's comfort as he carries you through this time! If you don't have a personal relationship with God, she wants you to know HIM because she would want to see you again one day in Heaven! I am thankful I know HIM and as I told her in Hospice House "I will see you again soon"! Thankful that Ann was a part of my life for so many years! Love to you all!
