Billy & family, I want to express my condolences to each of you. I had not seen Ann in a lot of years but everytime I go up Hamilton St., I think about her when I see the spot where the mobile home she lived in sat. Know that she is safely wrapped in the arms of our Lord and pain free. May God Bless each of you.

I haven't seen Ann since I left school in '62. I do remember how beautiful I thought Ann was then. She was always so understanding and willing to "listen" with her heart. I appreciated that very much. May the Holy Spirit bring you and your family the comfort and strength you need at this time and in the days to come. God Bless you, Donna Stanley (Cochran) Johnson
