Ann graduated from St .John the Evangelist grade school in North End. I graduated a year ahead of her. I was surprised to meet her at Wesley Village when I was visiting a friend. It was good to reconnect after all those years. She was a strong woman . Rest in peace, Ann. Prayers and sympathy to her family.
