February 14, 2022 at 5:34 pmAnn was a good friend and a lovely person. When we met,she had so many friends. She swam, played cards, and had a lunch group that was particularly fond of holidays. Ann liked to dress festively. Her sparkling personality will be missed.

February 15, 2022 at 10:35 amI was so lucky to have known her from the time I was a young child and to have been able to keep in touch all these many years. I knew she had a zest for life, but that parasailing was news to me! She was fun to be around and for someone like Ann 94 years with us wasn’t nearly long enough. My deepest condolences to her family.
