Nikki, you may not remember me but I worked with Mrs. Crabtree at Jones Walker for many years. She was a great help to me on many occasions and I missed seeing her and talking to her when I left Jones Walker. She always had wonderful and funny stories that she shared with me. I'll keep you and your family in my prayers for God's comfort and strength during the coming days. God bless you and your family.

I sincerely enjoyed working with Ann at Thompson & Reilley. She was a truly special and inspirational lady.

Her family is in my thoughts and prayers.

75: the new 35!

Anne was a very fine and scrappy little (small in stature) tennis player. She didn't show her age - nor tell it, either! There are many reasons why we will miss her terribly, not the least of which is the fact that at our age it's hard to find a foursome for tennis.
May God's peace remain with her family. She gave it her best.

Niki and David, I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your Mom and our good friend Ms. Crabtree, as we called. It seems I have known Ann for close to 30 years and worked with her for a lot of that time. She was a delightful person and will be missed. My prayers are offered for Ann and her family and friends. She was always a very "young" and athletic individual and I am sure she will be watching her family from Heaven above while still running her races. God Bless Ann and her family and friends.
