Toni, Dean and families, I just heard of Ann's death. I'm so very sorry to hear. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. Cancer is so mean so at least she is no longer suffering, but I know that doesn't make it any easier for you. May the peace of the Lord comfort you in the coming days. Love, Karla Endris

To the Munn and Tank families, I am so sad to hear of Ann's death. She was so beautiful. She had a great sense of humor and was so kind. St. Agnes really was a family and now we've lost part of our family. I also went to high school with her. She will be greatly missed. I will keep you all in my prayers during this time of sorrow.

I am very sorry to hear about Ann. I went to grade school with Ann at St. Agnes and will always remember her soft spoken voice and always being friendly. I am thankful that I was able to re-connect with Ann for a short period of time a few months back and I am thankful to have known her and that she is now in a better place.
