I am very sorry to hear of Ann's passing. I first got to know Ann when my cousin, Jean Underwood, from Wingham brought her with them when they came to visit at our family farm near Ripley. We renewed our friendship when she and her cousin, Donna, sttended my Mother's 100th birthday party (2001). Ann could always bring a smile every where she went.

On behalf of the MacPherson family we would like to send our condolences to you and your family. Know matter how much we know it is going to happen it dosen't make it any easier when it does happen. Each and every member of our families is special and we grieve for them when they leave us, but when you loose your mother its like you loose a part of yourself. The mother is always the person that keeps the family together so loosing her is the hardest. Vana I also know she was your best friend and that makes it twice as hard to loose her. I feel your pain and understand what you are going through. Hugs and prayers always. Maggie
