Oh how I love Ann, I have so many memories with her and Johnny and aunt Johnny Lee, but the one memory that stands out the most is when I was a child, and Paw Paw Gerald and Maw Maw would bring me to the crawfish bowls and would peel my crawfish for me because I was scared of the pinchers even though they weren’t moving. I love her so much she’s greatly missed. I wish I could’ve got around to seeing everyone today but I was just glad I was there.
Awe how I love Ann! I remember as a child when paw paw Gerald and maw maw Ruth would bring me to the crawfish boil Ann would peel the crawfish for me because I was so scared of them! There is so many memories but that one stands out best! My prayers are with you all! I wish I could have seen you all today but I was glad I could make it anyway!
Such a loving person. I hired her on at UMRH after she told me and my COO that no one would hire her due to her age. What an amazing decision that was made on that day. She was such a sweet person amongst that a great nurse who cared for her patients. Most of all she loved her husband and her family especially that grandson who earned the last name LANDRUM. She educated us well there for those who would listen on canned food and how to make her easy famous Carmel. Such great memories with such an amazing woman. Ann we love you and you will truly be missed.
Thank You!
