Ann worked for many years as a legal secretary and proudly earned her pilot’s license in her younger years. She held a deep and abiding faith in Christ. While Ann loved all animals, horses were the true joy of her life. She spent years as a jockey, earning numerous awards, and cherished the time she spent riding and caring for her beloved horses.
