I like a couple of other people who've left messages, worked with Ann at Heritage of Edina Nursing Home. Ann left an indelible mark on me. She was always funny and interesting and an incredible person. My sympathy to her family for losing her at such a young age.

Ann was my best friend through elementary school. We did practically everything together and she was always "the life of the party". We went to 'horse camp' together in the summer and shared a love of animals, particularly horses and dogs. I remember her dogs, Satch, a black lab, and PJ, a Cockapoo. We stayed overnight at each others' houses, and met each other every recess at Morningside, Wooddale, and Highlands schools. We sang songs on the school bus and swam together at the pool. After our 5th grade year my family moved away and we eventually lost touch, but I've never forgotten Ann. My daughter is 8, and seeing her with her friends has often reminded me of Ann and all the fun we had growing up. I'm so sorry she is gone.
My thoughts and prayers are with her family.

I will remember Anne and her ability to make people grin.
The day that Anne passed away I was in LeSeur MN I was just relaying a story about her and how we used to go on a yearly trailride in the hills there and how much fun it was. It usually rained but that didn't matter. I met Anne over 30 years ago when I brought my horse to Chaska. We all had so much fun running around in the woods with our horses. Another favorite memory was working at the Renaissance Festival(way back when). From racing to leaping and just riding around in costume we always had a great time.
Ann was always helping people. I remember when she worked in the nursing home she was so eager to show us all how to make square corners when making beds! Anne was instramental in helping my family arrange hospice care for my brother in Florida. I could never thank her enough for that.
She will be greatly missed.
Peace
