From People and Huffington Post: Ana was born to a musical family. Her Dad is a Jazz saxophonist and full-time Jazz faculty. The family had been living in Canada until earlier in 2012 moving back to Connecticut, Dad's original home. Family calls Ana their "Sweetie Girl". She loved to sing and dance.
And from Ana Grace Marquez-Greene's Memorial website and foundation:
Just one glimpse of her face and you can feel the joy that radiated from this beautiful six year-old. This is how her dad, a renowned jazz saxophonist, describes his precious daughter: “Ana’s love for singing was evident before she was even able to talk. In a musical family, her gift for melody, pitch and rhythm stood out remarkably. And she never walked anywhere — her mode of transportation was dance. She danced from room to room and place to place. She danced to all the music she heard, whether in the air or in her head. Ana loved her God, loved to read the Bible and loved to sing and dance as acts of worship. We ask that you pray for the legions of people who are left behind to cherish memories of her.”
The Ana Grace Project of the Klingberg Family Center will launch on December 2, 2013 with the mission of:
Promoting love, connection, and community for every child and family.
