Heartbroken for the loss of a wonderful friend. You will be missed.
Ann was a beautiful, kind and loving friend to many at WCU. Though our paths went separate ways in adulthood I have often thought of her kindness, her sweetness, her beautiful laughter and her gentle spirit. We traveled together with a collegiate youth group to build a church in Oaxaca Mexico, and roomed together at WCU for a semester. She was true to herself and others. She inspired me to continue (and a struggle it was) with a nursing degree and career. I am grateful to have known her, and to have been inspired by her. Your family is in my prayers.
You were one of a kind and my best friend. I will miss you always! ❤️
