Ann was a good friend to me when we were very young. Her family even took care of our horse Dolly and her filly. I'm sad to hear of her loss to us.  Sympathy to her children and family and friends.

I always enjoyed listening to Ann's stories about your family. She was a great talker, and I was a good listener—we balanced each other well.

Yesterday, I thought of her at a BBQ. I didn't know anyone there, so I did my usual thing and found a quiet spot. Ann had a knack for breaking the silence and striking up a conversation. I remember sitting with your dad, who was often quiet, and I couldn't help but think how true it is that opposites attract.

Annie was amazing in everyway. She was such a blessing to all that knew her.  I feel very blessed to have met her. I will always love and remember your beautiful smile Annie. Until we meet again.

Although not related by blood, Annie was part of my family. She helped raise my brother, my sister, and I as our nanny for many years. She was so supportive of us as if we were her own. She came to our concerts, sporting events, award ceremonies, and many other family functions, including a couple of our weddings. She was always there, and I loved her for it.

Annie had many close women in her life and like most women we all wear many hats in life and sometimes that’s hard , but dear Annie was one in a million when it came to wearing every hat possible . She was able to give her all as a wife , mother , grandmother , friend , mentor , and servant to so many all at the same time .  She was the best “ hat wearer “ I’ve ever met . 

Despite the suffering she endured , her altruistic loving heart never gave any less . 
Heaven is a richer place with such a treasure in it now . Thinking of you all later this week , but sending my love and prayers for a joy filled  celebration and memories to share together . Love Elaine ( in the UK) xx

Dear Family of “Our Annie,”

You ALL were Annie’s beloveds.  Strong families spend time together. Everyone is busy. Find time. Safeguard  your family traditions. Reach out to those on the periphery and pull them close. Mend fences and find understanding where you can.
Enjoy each other. Teach the next generation how to do family. Keep love alive at all costs.  Love Verta

Annie was such a lovely, thoughtful, giving person. We are so sorry to see her leave the planet - but she has gone to a better place and has left so many so much to be thankful to her for. - With love from Valerie & Forrest Richardson

To Annie’s family,
I’m so sorry for your loss of Annie.  She was the most beautiful, precious, loving, caring, devoted, faithful and funny woman.

I will miss her dearly 
I pray for your healing, peace and comfort in this difficult time.

Love,
Tina Reich,  Verta’ sister

I met mrs. Ann when I came in town in October. She was an amazing woman and so bless I got to meet her. Jeanine is my mom and mom you're mom would be proud with everything you have achieved and done.  I love y’all and need anything let us know.

Ann was the most altruistic person I have ever had the pleasure to know. She was endlessly giving to those she loved and cared about. Forever setting aside her own burdens to embrace those of others.  This could be via encouraging words, an empathetic ear, prayers, direct help for those in need and endlessly making herself present to the other. She will be dearly missed and  forever remembered for her kind heart and the compassion and love she shared with everyone around her.  I am blessed to have been touched by her light!

Ann we miss you soooo much. Makes me wonder how we will all get along without you! We will love always!😪

Ann cared about everyone gave everything she could to anyone who needed it and would help any of us at a moments notice. Never 1 ounce of Ill intent - Amanda Whitten
