I was sadden to hear of Ann's passing. She was an intelligent and multi-talented person.
I have many fond memories of Ann. Our daughters were in Girl Scouts together. We spent a lot of time together including going on an 8 mile bicycle trip with our daughters, going on Volksmarches together, and many other adventures. She was a real sport. She was like a wonder woman and could do anything.
She also gave me good advice when I was majoring in education myself.
Unfortunately we lost contact the past few years.

I was shocked & saddened to learn of Ann's passing. She was an intelligent and multi-talented person.
I knew her from Girl Scouting where our daughters were in the same troop.
