She was the wife of 1, mother of 3, grandmother of 6 and great-grandmother of 11.
I have a vivid memory of her 80th birthday. We had a bunch of family at our house and she came bounding in so excited to see her family and literally jumped up and said "It's my birthday!" At age 90, while still living alone, she would never go a day without her normal routine which included cleaning the kitchen and doing her hair. At age 97 while visiting her she just couldn't say enough about how much she missed me and was so glad to see me. She kept patting me on my leg over and over telling me she loved me. It wasn't until shortly after that she stopped walking outside to see us off every time we came over.
Right now she is where so many of us wish we were, at the feet of Jesus praising Him. 
We'll miss you Grandma Ann.

That is a fantastic photo.
Allison,
What a beautiful tribute to your grandmother.
I know that it is difficult to say goodby to our loved ones but how precious are the memories they leave us.
Your family will be in our prayers.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. Sounds like she had a wonderful and full life.
Allison, can you imagine what it is like to worship at the feet of Jesus? Hard to imagine...but Grandma Ann is livin it. Wow!
Obviously Grandma Ann has passed on a tremendous legacy.
I'm sorry to hear of your family's loss, and at the same time rejoice with you in Grandma Ann's homecoming.
