I learned yesterday that my Aunt Ann passed away. Even though we live far away in the state of Oregon, we kept in touch through the years. Her husband, Phil was my dad`s brother. Ann and Phil were so good together. They had such good chemistry and such an adoration for each other. I enjoyed their great sense of humor and kind hearts. I know that Ann missed Phil terribly and didn`t seem to get over the loss of him. She did, however have her dog Charlie in her final days until he passed away recently. I loved Ann so much. I was just writing a Christmas letter to her the day I got the call that she was gone. I will miss her terribly. My condolences go out to her family and friends.
With sincerest sympathy,

My sympathy goes out to the family of Ann Peterson. She will be greatly missed.
I had many visits with Ann and Phil over the years. I am a cousin of Phil Peterson, so
guess that also made me a cousin to Ann by marriage. My Mother was a Peterson and
was Phil's first cousin. One good memory I have of Ann was when we spent a weekend
at Orville and Gerry's (Phil's brother and sister n' law) cabin upnorth with Ann and Phil, one
summer. We visited, shopped and alot of good laughs together. Ann and Phil were so
happy together after many years of marriage. I know it was a sad day when she lost Phil.
Now so sad to hear of the news of Ann has passed away. She will be greatly missed.
