Ann grew up on a farm near Boone, NC, and learned the value of hard work at an early age. She was an outstanding athlete at Watauga High School and attended Appalachian State University on scholarships for softball and volleyball. She was smart, strong, competitive, and tough. Those traits were on display throughout her life. She worked in the food service business her entire career and developed herself into an accomplished manager and sales professional, most recently with Halperns’ Steak and Seafood. She expected nothing less than excellence from herself and those around her, and her customers and co-workers loved her for it. Ann was also the consummate vacation planner with a particular fondness for sea and sand!
More importantly, Ann was a beautiful person - outgoing, caring, thoughtful, and generous. She was a wonderful wife, mother, sister, and aunt. She made new friends wherever she went and would do anything in her power to help a friend in need. Her family will always miss the love, kindness, and energy that she brought into their lives every day.
