I shall remember the laughter. I shall always remember the kindness. I shall always remember when my favorite aunt reached out when I was at my lowest and lifted my spirits. She always treated my family like it was her own. Aunt Ann will always have a special place in my ❤️ and memories. I love you, Aunt Ann.

Ann was so caring, so generous person and so much fun!! Aunt Ann hosted me for the summer of 1966. I was 14 years old and spent one of the best summers of my life with her and my cousins in Pensacola. Thanks for the memories Ann until we meet again.
Rev: 21: 3,4
And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying:
“Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man,
and He will dwell with them.
They will be His people,
and God Himself will be with them as their God.
4‘He will wipe away every tear from their eyes,
and there will be no more death
or mourning or crying or pain,
for the former things have passed away.”
