James and Ann emigrated to the USA in august 1991 following Linda to Parowan.

In the USA Ann studied for and passed her CNA qualification and worked 10 years. A profession which suited her loving, caring personality.

Ann was a truly wonderful person, with a big heart and the most beautiful smile, everybody loved her and loved being around her, all the family feel so blessed to have had her in their lives & although it is such a comfort to know she is no longer in pain, we will miss her sweet spirit, her fun sense of humor, her unconditional love and the light she brought into this world, we all have such wonderful memories of her which we will treasure forever.
No words can truly express how much she means to all that knew her and how greatly she will be missed.
