Ann loved all of her family; she was always serving, always helping and always giving of her time and resources. You would often find her cleaning, cooking, sitting and caring for sick family members and others. Ann was a great country cook, known for chicken and dressing, sweet potato casserole, red velvet cake and so many other foods. But most of all she was known for her heart. She was a Proverbs 31 woman and mother.
