So many memories rushed through my mind when I opened the envelope and learned of Ann's passing. •Athens, Ohio: Chris and Ann, two highly intelligent, extremely talented individuals who were so in love--and what a beautiful story you told of your international courtship. •Your visit to Nebraska enroute west when the boys were little; such fun! •Our visits to Chicago were times to renew friendships and see how much the kids had grown. •When the girls decided on colleges in Illinois, you helped them on several occasions, even taking them to Galena for a weekend! •Our children's weddings provided time to be together for those special occasions. •These and more memories we will cherish as we say our goodbyes to Ann, remembering all the roles she played, the stories she told, the things she did to make a difference in someone's life.
