Ann Rustebakke

Ann was a force to be reckoned with: strong, intelligent, determined. And she was a lot of fun. I never spent time with her when I didn't laugh. Via con Dios, Ann. You made a difference in this world.

Aunt Ann was an amazing and strong woman who had a presence, intellect and will that I remember from my childhood (and later) visits even though I didn't really appreciate what it meant at the time. It was unfortunate that our families group up so far apart geographically.

As a child growing up in Bernalillo, she was always such a pleasant lady. They don't come any better. Rest in Peace Ms Ann.
