Dear Dennis
We were so saddened to hear of Ann's passing and wanted to send our condolences. Ann was so good and generous to us when we lived in the third floor apt. You could always smell the aroma of something wonderful cooking when walking in and many times Ann would ask me to try something delicious she had made. She always had a delightful story and a smile that brightened the day. We have fond memories of our time living in Knightsville and of knowing you and Ann. She was an artist with a zest for life!
Sincerely
Jackie and Jim O'Brien

Dear DeVona family,
I was so saddened to learn of Ann's passing. I have such wonderful memories of growing up with that gracious lady as a neighbor and second mother, always looking out for us as we all played together. How my mother loved going to DeVon's for her hair every week for many years.
Please know that I will keep Ann in my prayers along with my prayers for Thomas.

My Dear Friend... I was lucky enough to have a relationship as Mary's physical therapist in the nursing home. It was through this friendship that we became very close. Mary was like no other patient I had ever treated in my 16 years in the "business". Mary came to to us for rehabilitation. She told me it took six guys to lift her as she could not move. Well with that being said, we quickly got to work to get M ary back to the prior level of function she was hoping to obtain. Without further ado, Mary and I worked very hard to get her stronger...she ended up going home for several months on her own. Mission accomplished. Mary never said that motto to me but she never had to. Her actions spoke louder than words. I could go on and on about my good friend but without further ado, I love You Mary. I will miss you every day.

Dear Dennis and Family, We have all lost an elegant and lovely friend. All of us who knew her admired her courage and selflessness in the face of hardship and devastating loss. She never complained about what life had given her, instead she rose above her adversity, ran a successful business and most importantly, raised accomplished sons. Her kindness, beauty and grace will always be remembered by me and my family.
Fondly, Toby Potter
