Ann was well known for her musical talents and abilities. She was the church pianist or organist at Noonday Baptist Church, Liberty Baptist Church, Woodland Hills Baptist Church and Martin Springs Baptist Church and was famous for her ability to accompany and back up a vocalist. She taught piano in Chandler for 17 years, influencing the lives of dozens of children and adults not only with musical knowledge, but also her faith in Christ and life values.
Ann spent nine years working with the Therapet Program of East Texas and was eventually able to have her own dog, Annie Rose, in the program. She worked at the local area hospitals, rehabilitation centers, the prison at Rusk and numerous functions for disabled children. She was voted Therapet volunteer of the year for 2010. Through this animal assisted therapy program she was able to minister to hundreds of people and make a difference.
Like many people, she had faced discouragement in life, but she decided if you are going to step on me at least let it be a step upward. She walked all the steps of life, never shied away and made each one a step upward. We love her and will miss her.
