I met and worked with Ann at the Riordan Clinic. She was a warm, caring, genuine, and loving friend. I will miss her terribly.
She loves our Lord so much and has been such a beautiful example of what it means to be faithful, how to be a devoted child of God. She will live in our hearts forever. Her soul is everlasting.
So sorry to learn of the passing of my dear dear friend. I had the pleasure to work with Ann at The Center For Improvement (Riordan Clinic) for several years and in the years after until now we continued our friendship mostly by phone. We spoke about every three weeks sharing wonderful stories of family and our Catholic faith. Ann loved her family deeply. Her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren. She talked about EACH of them. Ann had a fantastic mind remembering each one in such a special way. She remembered their birthdays, their baptisms, their education. Sending out Christmas cards and birthday cards to so many of us year after year was so important to her to do. I am going to miss her immensely. Talking with her was such an uplifting part of my life. Truly she is one of the nicest people I have had the privilege to know. If anyone belongs in heaven it is Ann. A few years ago she gave me a copy of her hand-written prayer. It was titled: PRAYER TO OUR BLESSED MOTHER. The last stanza was:
And when evening creeps upon me,
I’ll never fear to be alone.
Once again, Oh Blessed Mother
Take my hand and lead me home
Love you, Ann, and pray for all of us you have left here.

Sandy-Dean,
Thank you for your continued thoughts and Prayers. Mom would always update me on both of you; she knew when Dean had an appointment and would Pray extra hard on that particular day. Sandy, she pointed me to the article regarding your work on the annual catalog. Mom was an extremely special Woman. Thank you for your support.
Ann was the best mom, mother-in-law, grandma and great grandma anyone could have asked for. She loved each one of us so much! She had an incredible memory and never forgot a birthday, anniversary or special date, always making each one of us feel treasured and remembered. Her kindness, strength and devotion touched generations, and the love she gave so freely will live on in the hearts of all who knew her. She will be greatly missed.
