    I worked with Ann at the University for many years. She was a beautiful person that everyone loved. To her daughters, you had a precious mother. She was a kind and gentle soul. I know you will miss her very much. Just remember all the precious memoires of her, I know I will. Praying for you and the family. love Mrs. Annie Doris Cobb Smith, retired UWF 2000, College of Education, Dept of Elementary Education.
