We were very sad to hear of Ann's illness, and her death. We were out of town, and couldn't attend the funeral. We have fond memories of Joe and Ann, him checking out our peach trees, and trying to grow a tree from a peach pit, and her making peach jam, and sharing. They would always buy girl scout cookies from the girls and were very kind. Our condolences. Mike and Nancy Stalzer
