Ann worked part-time in high school, then after graduating went to work full time at the Bon Marche. Ann was thrilled to purchase 3 cashmere sweaters with her first paycheck & that is where her lifelong love of shopping for clothes began. Three months after the newlyweds were married Ron was drafted into the Navy. They quickly moved to beautiful San Diego, California and shortly thereafter, their son Michael Lorin was born. When Ron received his final sea duty orders, the Navy packed up the new Adams family of three & moved them back to Seattle.

Ann was talented & creative with a kind heart. She was energetic and for a while was a popular Northwest artist known for her pottery design.
