Long walks in her neighborhood, lunch together, talking about church, family, and young people.... I´d describe her as "pure in heart". When I visited my mother in Vicksburg, I´d see her and Dr. Sansing and their sons at mom´s church, First Baptist, the church I grew up in. I cherish those moments with her. To Gordon and Mark and Brian, I send my heartfelt gratitude that my life´s path intersected with hers and yours. Love, Anne

To Dr. Sansing and family,
What an immense loss. Elese was always so kind to me at FBC Vicksburg, and I remember her so fondly. Dr. Sansing, you hold a special place in my heart as well. You´ll all be in my thoughts.
Love,
Cydney (Wilkerson) Buchholz (Anne Tanner´s niece and GT and Cathy´s daughter)
