Ann, my lifelong friend...where do I begin to say how devistated I am at your passing. Ann, was one of the kindest and strongest women I've ever know. I have always been inspired by her love of God, family and of course your wonderful JC, the love of your life. Carlos and I cherish the memory of our luncheon visit with you just a few short weeks ago. She will be greatly missed by all that knew and loved you, and Ann touched so many. Rest in peace by dear, dear friend.

Aunt Ann you will be Greatly Missed!! You were an Aunt who brought Love, Laughter, and Kindness to every encounter. You made our summers memorable, never forgot our birthdays, always had kind words, and were definitely a woman we all admired. I have many Great Memories with you that I will cherish. I know you are up there singing, dancing, stirring your gumbo pot, and doing all the things you Love again. Until we meet again just know I Love You!

My aunt Ann was truly a force. She was kind, generous, and truly loved her life, her family and God. She was quirky, intelligent and her eyes were so bright. All of my cousins aspired to have a marriage as beautiful as the one she had with her husband JC. She will be greatly missed. She absolutely lived her life on her terms. The beautiful part about saying her terms was the fact that she loved God, her husband, her children and her extended family. I could only wish to aspire having that huge heart that she had. My heart is with everyone she has ever known or had the pleasure of even her acquaintance. She was truly a gem.

“Life is what you make it ,”
Ann made my life happy every time we met, come snow, come rain, come heat, come gloom of life. So it is, we all are slipping into darkness. May the light of life lite the way for Anns family.

There aren´t enough words to explain how much she meant to EVERYONE. She was truly ONE OF A KIND and I´m SO thankful that my last memory of her is her on the DANCE FLOOR at Tyler & Emma´s wedding, SURROUNDED by family who loved her SO much and LAUGHING and SINGING along!! May we celebrate her memory with small gestures, such as playing her favorite song, visiting a place that was dear to her or mailing a greeting card to a love one
