Ann was a devoted wife, mother, sister, daughter and friend. She was well known for her heart and soul of providing the community with the gift of what many people know as “The Outer Banks Christmas House.” Though her love of Christmas brightly shined through, it was her love for people and life that she was ultimately known for.
