December 11, 1934 - September 14, 2024

Dear friends,

Ann McCarty, a well-beloved member of the Apollo Center of the Fellowship of Friends, completed her task today, Saturday, September 14, 2024, in Florida, at 5:10 p.m. Eastern time. Her death was due to cardiac arrest following a long illness.

Ann was born on December 11, 1934, and joined the Fellowship in St. Petersburg, Florida, on January 1, 1977. She was 89 years old on her last birthday. She moved with her children, including her daughter, Rebecca McCarty, to Apollo, where she lived for many decades. Ann also lived for a time in the Miami and Seattle centers.

Her dedication to the school and her ability to reach out to others were a hallmark of her being. She will be missed.

On behalf of all who knew you, we give thanks.

This is not my true country, I have lived banished from my true country –
I now go back there, I return to the celestial sphere where everyone goes in his turn.
