Ann was a dear "Church" friend of mine. She was friendly and kind to everyone and would greet all the people in our pew. Ann had a wonderful sense of humor. She was just a delight to see every week. When my sister started attending church with me, Ann would kid her and make her feel very comfortable in church. My sister and I will miss her. We would like to express our condolences to her family.
