To Tina and family,my condolences and prayers of comfort and peace during this time of the loss of your mother. Ann was a long time friend of the family. I had fun back in my younger days modeling her sewing talents. She always had a pleasant attitude. She will be missed dearly.❤️🙏🏽

I met Ann when she taught sewing at Northgate Mall me and my Mom took her class twice. My mom caught on real quick she made her clothes for a little while. She was the BEST seamtress/taylor I've ever seen she made her clothes without patterns she made beautiful creations. I ran into her when the Girl Scouts use to serve thanksgiving at the Hosiery Mill she and I had good conversations . She surely will missed with those gifted hands. My prayers for the family during this difficult time.
