It is with great sadness that we have learned the following news.
Ann Moss is a past president of our Madison County Retired Teachers Association. We have recently learned that Ann and Rick's oldest son, JASON, passed away from Covid and left his wife Christine and their three 14 year old children.
Ann was very involved in IRTA earlier; but, had to stop being active because she was helping Jason and his wife caring for the three children.
Their family is planning to have a memorial for Jason sometime in the summer or spring.
Please keep Jason's wife, Christine, and their children, and Ann and Rick in your thoughts and prayers.
We will update news concerning future planned memorial services if we receive additional information to post.
