    Ann loaned me her gold cross to wear when I went to my first prom. She pierced my ears and fed me many times. I cried when they tore down the house on 7th Street where so many memories were made. We were lucky to count Ann as one of our neighborhood moms. Rob and I send our deepest sympathy. Love, Amy Atkinson Parker

    John, Julie, and Pat. So sorry for your loss. I wish I could be there in person. Your family was always so good to me and Ann was a great person. I only saw her about 4-5 times in the past 30 years but always friendly, caring, and asked about my Mom every time. I appreciated her, and you John so much for coming to see my Mom when she passed two years ago. You are in my thoughts and prayers God Bless you all.

    I love you Ann. I will miss your loving hugs that you always willingly gave. Not a day goes by that I do not miss Rick. Every time me and Jessyka make an accomplishment I think of him and how proud he would be. Now, you will be with him to give him all those loving hugs that we remember. We love you and will forever keep your smile, kind heart, and loving arms in our hearts forever. You are not gone, you are just waiting for the rest of us to join you and Rick in a more beautiful place.
