    I met Ann at the US Court Clerk's Office in 1978, when I began my career at the US Attorney's Office. From then until her retirement, she was the perfect representative of the Court family. She was kind, friendly, welcoming, and helpful every time you came to Court. And she was also so darn much fun! I loved chatting with her about travel, and her long history at our Court. What a remarkable life she lived - I was honored to be Ann's friend. John W. Vaudreuil Former US Attorney

    My sympathy to Ann's family. She was a dear friend to many of us. We met at the Shamrock Club where we worked together at many functions. She was also my mentor when I started volunteering at St Mary's Hospital where she volunteered for many years. We had such fun together. Her kindness and love of life and of the Irish will be in my memories. She was so proud to be the Irish Person of the Year for the Shamrock Club and her family supported her well! Earlier this year, I took her a bag of pfeffernusse, which she looked forward to each year from St John's. She was thrilled to get them and ate half the bag while I was there. It was a delightful visit! When I think of her, it puts a smile on my face. She loved and was loved by many! If there is a bit of Bailey's Irish Cream in heaven, I'm sure she will find a wee bit to sample! RIP dear Ann!

what our families say

Tiffany Foster went out of her way to fulfill all my requests, talked me through problems I was facing, and tried to make me feel as comfortable as possible when I was a wreck, totally crushed, and I thank her with all of my heart for that.

The professional manner of the staff made a difficult time a little easier.

Lynda R. | July 2020

Services provided for both parents were perfect, on time, and no issues. Brenda is awesome and strong!

Michael M. | July 2020

Skyler was absolutely amazing. She was so caring and helpful through this whole process. She even went above and beyond to meet with us in DeForest and even to make a stop at our home to drop off or pick up anything needed. While it was a small gesture, it was so helpful and greatly appreciated.
