Dear Ann love you always, miss you daily, think of you often.

I miss Ann everyday.  She was such a great friend and thoughtful person. ❤️❤️❤️

Thinking of you & your sons. So sorry for your loss.

Steve and family,  Bob and I wish to send condolences to you and your family on the loss of Ann,  I had spent some time with Ann over a cup of coffee with her and other friends and always enjoyed her kind and thoughtful demeanor.  Also saw her often on my morning walks and she greeted me with that big, sweet smile, and a little conversation which enlightened my day.  May God be with you and your family and give you strength during this time.

Jill and I were sorry to hear of your loss.  Ann always had a smile on her face and a great sense of humor.  Rest in peace.  All of you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Although it was many years ago, we have fond memories of Anne when we were neighbors across the street in Trevi Gardens. 

We are so sorry for your loss and send our deepest sympathies.

To Ann's family, her brothers, Teresa, her boys, Ryan and Sean, Steve:  I am shocked and feel an incredible loss as I know you do.  Your Mom, wife, sister is truly one of the most beautiful persons I know.  She had a modest presence although she could easily have commanded the room.  She reached out to check on friends and was quick to take care of elderly or sick family and friends.  Ann was smart and fun.  I was blessed to call her a friend.  We spent time at Hilton Head.  We worked together at DNR and made daily walks to the horse barns.  We shared lots of  stories in those days and I can say Ann had a great love for her family.  She was  logical,  forgiving and a spiritual person.  My heart aches for my friend.  I feel sadness and sympathy for you, her family.  However, I am sure that Ann is looking down on us all, that she will make our paths easier if she can, and that she is being honored for her human kindness.  Rest in Peace my friend, until we meet again.  Mary Allen

38 yrs of love, support, kindness, and friendship shared with my sweet friend Ann. 
We laughed until we cried, traveled together, supported each other through motherhood and illness, and shopped until we dropped. We knew each other’s extended  family like it was our own, and if we hadn’t spoken for awhile due to the business of life, we just picked up where we left off when we would reconnect again, 
 Thank you my friend for all the life moments we spent together. They will be cherished forever as was my lifelong friendship with you❤️

We are so sorry for your loss.  Rick and I have fond memories of spending time  together when our boys were young.  Your family is in our thoughts and prayers.  Rick and Ronda Fulks

Olga and Steve. Please know that you are all in my thoughts and you have my sincere sympathy.  May Ann rest in eternal peace.

We are so sorry for your loss and ours. Ann was such a beautiful lady, inside and out!  If you would please, keep in touch friend and neighbor. Anytime!  Love all of you. Max and Sharon Strasbaugh. ❤️🙏

My wonderful close friend, Ann, I can’t believe you’re no longer w us. I love you, my friend. May you rest in the comfort of his arms!!  I will miss you deeply. 😥😥😥🙏🙏🙏

I cannot express enough our condolences to you Steve and your family.  Our prayers are with you 💔🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

This is so sad and shocked. Ann was a wonderful woman. Steve my sincerest condolences to you and the boys. If you need anything please let me know.

I worked with Ann Otten at the State of Illinois.  Central Management services. Ann was always so nice and so fun to work with!
Then when I retired in 2016 there she was a member of the Springfield Civic Garden Club.  So we had more food times and fun together. 
Ann will be greatly missed.
I am sending love ❤️ and prayers and strength to Ann’s entire family.
Love, 
Melissa Kahle

Steve, Ryan, and Sean:

I am so sorry for the loss of Ann! She was one of my favorites when I worked at Panther and was so sweet to me each and every time I saw her in the years following. I just saw her in June and I will always cherish the advice she gave me. I will be out of town for the services and will be thinking of you all while you navigate your new normal.

I am so sorry to hear of Ann's passing. To Anns husband, her sons, and all her family & friends  we are sending love and prayers. Living in the Valley the McDonalds were such a beloved family.  I always loved going to there house and visiting with Charlie and his cute little sister Teresa there family was big like ours, so it always felt familiar.  Mrs. McDonald you are loved along with the rest of your family. You are such a wonderful Mother & lady.  Rip Beautiful Ann

To friends and family of Ann Otten,
So sorry for the loss off my good friend, Annie-O. We planned to do lunch real soon.  Never think you can do it later, as later may be too late. Too all her siblings, she loved you all big, big much. She watched me and my grandkids grow for 25 years. Bye Annie-O, God speed.

I met Ann in 1997 when we moved to Springfield from CA.   Her son, Sean, and my son Jon became friends. Lucky for me Sean had an amazing Mom who was not only fun but loving and generous and kind. To say Ann was generous and kind is an understatement.  I’m not quite sure why she was so kind to me except it was how Ann was to all.  The Otten’s were our Springfield family, we were accepted and loved by Steve, Ryan, Sean, Thelma and Olga.  We left there in 2003 but my time there was immeasurably better and much more fun because of Ann. We remained friends, in my heart she will always be with me.  Ann Otten was beautiful inside and out. I will miss her daily.

Dennis and I were very saddened to hear of Ann’s passing. Our prayers and hearts are with you all at this difficult time. We will be out of town for the services unfortunately. Love for u all

Stephen, we were so sorry to hear about Ann. I will share her obituary with my sisters.  Prayers for you and your family during this difficult time. 
Lew and Marcia (Ride)

So sorry for your loss
She will be missed but not forgotten 
Tina Weir Megginson

Steve, Walter and I are so sorry to hear about Ann's passing. Lean on your family and Friends at this heart breaking time. You and the Boys are in our thoughts and prayers.

Ann was a beautiful soul, who cared for everyone. She laughed and loved with all her heart. Will miss her ,and dinners out, patio time with Steve and her love of good wine... Rest In Peace Ann Otten .

Steve - Sympathies and prayers to you and the boys. May your memories of good times take you through the upcoming days.

Steve, please accept my sincere condolences for your loss of Ann.  I had never met Ann, but I  know you, your boys and other family will miss her greatly.
Sincerely,
Marcia Clark(Boston)

When I was a child and lived next door to my maternal grandparents , we would look forward to the yearly visit of the McDonald family. Ann was the only girl in the McDonald family (for a while anyway)and we would be inseparable the entire visit. She was a great person and will be missed by all!
