I am saddened to hear of the passing of Ann Shirley Brooks. My aunt, Collette Wheaton Bernard, worked for Ann Shirley in the Department of Parks before moving on to work for the Lexington Convention & Visitors Bureau. Collette and Ann Shirley remained friends over the years. Later in my life I was able to connect with Ann Shirley through my friendship with her partner Sonny Hunt and friend Bill Cox. They were a wealth of knowledge regarding Kentucky politics and I was throughly entertained by the stories they shared with me. My sincerest condolences to her son Bill and Ann Shirley’s entire family. Love, Mary Greene Sharfe
