Dear Angie and family. So sorry for the sad loss of you mom.
Our deepest condolences.
The Jamieson Family.
Ann was such a kind and generous and hospitable lady. I knew her since 1962 before I was married. Even though we lost touch over the busy years of marriage and child rearing, I will always have fond memories of her. Toni Jabs.
