Dear Uncle Todd and family,
I remember Aunt Ann exactly by the picture here. She was special to me because she and I had the same name, Ann Riddle. I did not realize that her birthday was one day before mine and that she was known by Annie. I am also known as Annie by my friends.
I remember going to your home on Christmas Day and going to the "desert" to visit you.
Although, I did not see Aunt Ann often, she was a special person in my life.
May peace and fond memories be with you at this time.
Much love to you,
your niece,
Annie Riddle Nelson

I'm so sad she's gone. She will be greatly missed. She showed me love and kindness. She was good to me.

I had alot of fun growing up with you guys. I'll never forget the summer road trips we took when I was a teenager. Your family always made me feel welcome. Ann, Todd and Wanna, thank you for making me feel like I'm part of the family. I have always felt deep love and comfort radiating from all of you.
It's always harder for the ones left behind.
May your memories bring you joy.

Ann, may you rest in peace now. Your light will always shine bright for me. It's hard to believe your gone. I love you.
