This is such sad news.? Ann was such a wonderful and giving person.?She will be missed. ?I remember years ago, I can't remember the exact year, I went with Cappy Pottle and Al Gibson to the No. West Futurity, Bob Penny judged.? We were invited to stay with Ann and her family.? I was so impressed, when we arrived, she had the downstairs set up with a number of beds for people to stay.? She made us feel so at home, even serving us breakfast.? She was a very warm loving lady. I will remember her always.? Rest well Ann... My thoughts and prayers go out to her family.

I will never forget how I first met her or the wonderful stories she told.There will never be anyone quite like her again. I knew her for 38 years none of them were boring.
