Ann was my hair dresser for several years before I moved to Maryland. I always looked forward to our visits,seeing her cat, and the beautiful flowers she planted each spring. She was a lovely person.

Ann was a fabulous hairdresser but even more a wonderful friend through the years. George and I always had our hair appointments at the same time and it was always fun and we had some wonderful laughs. "Butch", we felt like we knew you because your mom talked about you all the time. She was always so proud of you. Ann will be sorely missed but know she had so many, many friends. With deepest sympathy to all her family.

Butch, I have only recently returned to WV and was so sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. She was a special lady and I always appreciated both the welcome she gave and the invitation to share your family connection. I know she will be greatly missed. It's so hard to let our parents go. I will always remember her and you fondly for the kindness you both shared with me. Be well, my friend. Know she is at peace.
