I have just found out and am truly, truly sorry for the family’s loss. I spoke to her just a few times and each time she brought a smile to my face. I worked with John and know how she was dearly loved by him. I pray strength to the entire family.
Brittany and Brad and family. I am so sorry about Ann. Your mother was one of the most beautiful women ever! She was so sweet .she had a very big heart and I know you will miss her. I will always cherish the time she and Brittany came to see me after my accident. That meant the world to me!i love you all. She will be missed.
My family sends our deepest condolences.I was so thrilled to finally meet Anne a couple of years ago after many phone conversations about our Middleton linage. She was a special lady and will be missed greatly.
I am Kathryn Middleton Flannagan’s daughter.
I am so sorry for your loss. I know this is a very difficult time for the family. Something that has always given me comfort is a scripture at Revelation 21:4, it says, “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” I sincerely hope this brings you some comfort.
