It's been close to a month now, and Jim and I are both missing Aunt Ann.  It took me a few weeks before I could truly talk about Aunt Ann and how much she meant to us.  I have so many fond memories of Aunt Ann over the years.  I fondly remember the many times I spent staying with her and Uncle Paul.  Her house was always a home away from home for my brother Chris and me.  I'll always remember the times when she took Chris and I to Shipley's and insisted that we wait until a fresh batch of donuts came out, so that we could get them while they were hot.  She was a great aunt and everyone who knew her loved her.  When I got married, Aunt Ann made us the most incredible wedding cake and it was exactly like I had always imagined my wedding cake would be.  She even put real flowers on each tier of the cake.   When I think of Aunt Ann, I think of her love of birds and animals, and this was always reflected in her collectibles and photos.  She was also amazing at making crafts of all types and this talent has been passed down to Debbie.  We miss you so much Aunt Ann, but you will always live in our hearts.  Debbie and Jeff, we feel very sad about the loss that you have had but hope that you can take comfort in how much your mom was loved.  The last thing I remember about Aunt Ann is the fun we had with our popsicles (sticking our colored tongues out at each other).  Even though she was in pain, she loved to laugh, and her fun-loving spirit will live with us forever.  We will always love you Aunt Ann and look forward to when we will meet again.  Love, Wendy and Jim

I only knew Ann for a few months, but in that time came to know that she was a Champion of a person.  I enjoyed playing Sequence with Ann & Wilma on many occasions and had nice Dinners together.  I will miss her, but know she is with her Husband and Parents, in a better place.  My heart goes out to all the members of her family.  Love, Peter  

Barbara and I are sorry we couldn't attend the services.  Too many things happening on Tuesday that couldn't be rescheduled.  But our love and condolences go out to all of Margie Ann's immediate family in Houston.  I have a lot of favorite cousins.  The children of Uncle Robert and Aunt Katherine have always been near the top.  I am so thankful for our visits to Houston and yours to Waco for reunions and visits to see Mom and Dad.  Those  visits  provide the foundation for our  good memories that we hold on to as the years pass all too quickly by.   Margie  Ann was a pleasure to know and we were always happy to see her and the rest of the family.  Take care of each other and hold on to the memories.  Love  John Dall and Barbara Bradshaw  


Our roots say we're Sisters,
Our hearts say we're friends:

You are my rock; my friend; my confidant; and my Sister.  I will miss you so much, but will remember all the good times that we had together.  You were there for me anytime I needed you, especially after Christopher died.  You were there everyday helping me with what ever had to be done.  How would I have ever gotten thru that time without you.  Now I am faced with going on without you, what a hard task this will be.  My Heart ache's for you.  My love is never ending.  Until we meet again.  With much love, Wilma.
