I’m so sorry to hear about Aunt Ann… I loved coming to visit when I was younger and I wish I would have kept it up over the years… My thoughts and prayers are with you all…
It was a pleasure and honor to know you. I really enjoyed our visits over the past 5 years. I will miss our nose wiggles.
Rest in peace sweet lady.
