I JUST READ ABOUT ANN!! I HAD TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO TRACK HER DOWN B/C OF CLASS REUNIONS ETC. BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL.AT ONE TIME, I HAD TALKED TO ONE OF THE BROTHERS YEARS AGO. I DO NOT REMEMBER IF IT WAS HARRY OR EARL, BUT HE WAS LIVING IN S.C. AT THE TIME.
I ALSO TALKED TO ANN AFTER SHE WAS IN TEXAS.
I WENT TO NURSING SCHOOL (COLUMBIA HOSPITAL SCHOOL OF NURSING,CLASS OF 1963)WITH ANN IN COLUMBIA, S.C.
SHE WAS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL, SMART, SWEET, NICE & KIND PERSON, AS WELL AS A WONDERFUL NURSE!!!!!!!!
PRAYERS TO THE FAMILY!!!!

I am sad to have just discovered Ann's obituary. I am a cousin in SC and recall visiting her family in Ridge Spring when we were children close in age. I am also a Vietnam veteran and appreciate her service. I have been involved in family research and had hoped to locate and make contact with her. My condolences to her family members who remain. 14 Apr. 2021
