Ann...a beautiful friend whose great faith and genuine care for others endeared her to so many. She is at peace; my life has been greatly enriched by her friendship. She will never be forgotten.

My mother, Elsie Brison, and Anne were great friends through the Concord Visiting Nurse. I know she would like for me (me too) to send our condolences, but congratulations on a life well lived!

To know Ann was to truly love her. We met when my husband and 2 children moved to Alton in 1982 and became members of St. Joan of Arc parish. We became friends by being on parish committees, lectors and Eucharistic Mininsters. When her husband Dave passed away she asked if I would sing for his Mass which I did. She then said to me "When I die I want you to sing my Mass." Ill never forget that. We became such dear friends over the years. Even with me spending our winters in FL we kept in contact with notes and Christmas cards. Seeing her this summer at the 20th Anniversary celebration for St. Katherine Drexel Parish was such a treat. I will miss her dearly. She was a true treasure. My thoughts and prayers go out to you, her children and family. She certainly has earned her wings!
