Hey Debbie, Sorry to hear of the passing of your mother.  Just a note to send thoughts and prayers to you and your family. 

I was full of sorrow when I heard the news of Ann's passing.  I loved being neighbors with Ann and her family.  Ann was always kind and welcoming when I came over to play with Debbie and Linda. She will be missed.  Sending prayers your way. 

Sending your family ☮ and ❤. 

I was so excited when my brother Don said he was getting married. That meant i was getting a sister.  Yay  Two wonderful people in my life. Ann used to let me even brush her thick hair for her. Well thats what sisters did. ( i was 9 years younger) We had many fun nights playing games with my mom and dad.  I remember the first turkey Ann ever cooked. She didnt know there would be stuff inside the bird and well you can figure out the rest.  lol  So many memories  and Thats what keeps us going the happy times.   

I always loved Ann’ lovely smile and her grace ! I loved the time Ann and Don came to San Francisco and We dined at the delicious “ Scoma’s Restaurant 

Grandma was the sweetest person and I’ll miss her infectious smile! She has always been there for me and Nicole and I’m so thankful to have so many great memories of her and grandpa. I miss them both a lot, but I’m thankful they’re reunited and that I’ll see them again one day!

I remember grandma always watching the ducks in their first Florida house. We would pick our favorites and watch them grow up. We fed them and named them and waited patiently for them to show up to the house. She always had a soft spot for animals and could remember her old cat, Stinky and her horses from La Junta. She always put others first and cared for all creatures, big or small in her life! 

This was a special day. Mom and Dad brought my Grandmother to Florida so she could meet her Great Granddaughters. It was wonderful to have the four generations together.

This is the happiest I remember seeing my mom. The first time she got to hold her granddaughters.

This is how I picture my parents now. They feel no more pain and are happy and together again
