Ann was the most happy lady I've ever met. She was always smiling and making jokes. I loved going over to see Carol and her mom in my 20's. She will be cracking jokes in Heaven now and making everyone laugh!

Anna Marie, You will always be an inspiration and dearly missed. You were a caregiver to your parents, your children, your grandchildren, and the many, many children you taught at CPS, You were truly angelic in your care for others, never complaining, always smiling, always with a kind word for others. You were devoted to family and to faith. You were a dear friend to my Mom, Pauline, a fellow teacher at CPS and in the pews with you at St. Giles. You were a bright spot in everyone's life that you touched. Thank you for your gift of sunshine to us all. You are dearly missed. May you rest in peace now.
