Guestbook

  1. Aunt Ann was always one of my favorite aunts, I will never forget going to Auntie Ann’s cause she lived in the beautiful log cabin and had a cow named Bugger. I’m all grown up now and going through trials and tribulations that come with being and adult, but it is those special happy childhood memories that my Aunt Ann gave me without even realizing it that sometimes keep me going and give me the inspiration to carry on to my children. My love, support and prayers go out to the entire Sales/Hughes family for I know they are extremely good people who have lost one of the most special ladies I have ever met.

    God Bless you all,

    Staci & Max McCormick

  2. Aunt Anne was a beautiful woman who was very warm and always made me feel welcome at her home. I have very fond memories growing up playing at the farm. I will miss her.
