Dear Maryland swimmers,
It is with great sadness that I must tell you that Ann Johnsen passed away suddenly on Tuesday, December 18, at the Memorial Hospital in Easton. Ann was the head coach for TCY, a mentor, and a dear friend to us all.
Glenn Mills has posted a beautiful tribute to Ann on his website at http://www.goswim.tv/articles_comments.php?id=5020_0_16_0_C There you can read about Ann, and if you have anything to share, you may contribute for her family to see. You can also see photos and more of Ann at our website http://web.mac.com/markoli/iWeb/Site/Stingrays.html
We have added an event to the upcoming swim series meet in Annapolis on January 19. The first event will be the 200 breaststroke — Ann’s favorite. TCY will be swimming it in her honor, and we welcome anyone who wants to join us for that swim.
