"Dear Katie and Family, May God bless and give you all the strength you need during this difficult time. Your Mother was a beautiful woman, inside and out. The memories of Devonshire still bring on a smile! I will never forget her strong Motherly voice yelling at all of you! She was a true Saint, like my own Mother! She had a long wonderful life, and lived for her children. God Bless her, may she rest in peace."

"What a beautiful Mother- in-law I had ! Model for Michigan Bell Telephone Company, happily married to the love of her life , Charles Patrick Kellett, engineer and Disabled Navy Pilot. Teacher and mother of six, 3 attorneys, a librarian , an open heart and recovry room Nurse, and an accountant. You raised a wonderful son in my husband, Philip Jerome Kellett. When your first Grandson, Charles Frederick was born, the nurses at Georgetown U. Hospital said, " where did your wonderful husband learn how to change diapers ? I answered " My Mother- in- law Ann." Phil was expected to change his brothers and sisters diapers. She raised a great guy. Thanks, Ann. Your strength, intelligence and beauty live on in all your children and grandchildren. Love, Lizzy"

"Aunt Ann never missed a card for my birthday. I was born one week after her son, my dear friend, Phil. What a time that must have been for these sisters. We all grew up close and under their influence valued family first and foremost. That is who we are today and forevermore. I would have it no other way today, and forevermore."

"I will always remember our trips to Alpena where I went to my cottage and she went to visit her sister, Eleanor. We had many interesting and good conversations. It helped that we were on the same side politically!!! She was dynamic and knew what she liked and did not like. Her role as mother, sister, grandmother etc. was performed with much love and care!! She will be missed. "
