Ann attended Birmingham schools, the University of Alabama and graduated with a degree in Elementary Education from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. She taught 4th grade math at Bluff Park Elementary for 20 years before moving to Simmons Middle for 12 years. All these years she worked at Parisians responsible for training Customer Service representatives. She then joined Blue Cross Blue Shield in Employee Training for 8 years.

Ann had a grateful and loving heart for the many blessings of family, friends, co-workers and the many children she had the privilege of teaching in her long journey in this life.

She brought joy to many residents at the Fair Haven Retirement Center with her courageous, loving, and giving spirit. Encountering residents, staff, at any level, or students from 30 years ago, she never forgot a name.
