Though eight years older than Anne, Jacob held a special place in her heart and when he was killed in an automobile accident, she was truly crushed. Yet through this tragedy, beauty arose and Anne’s musical and singing abilities were recognized and flourished. She truly uses those talents to bring glory and honor to her Jesus.
