Comments about ‘Moving on to the adventure that lies ahead’

I have loved reading your columns for many years. Thanks for always making me smile as I read your column. To a great author, columnist, mother, and aunt, a job well done.

Oh no! Say it isn't so! Who's going to be my source of humor? Who's going to be my source of motherly insight? Who's going to be my source of Bulwer-Lytton?

I'm very sincere when I say that I feel like I'm losing a friend. Every Monday, I've looked forward to reading your column during my lunch break, I teach high school. It's been my island of sanity in a sea of crazy adolescents.

Selfishly, I want you to continue writing your column for forever. However, whatever the reason for you departure, I wish you every happiness and success in your new endeavors.

I'm just so sad. I will miss you.

I have enjoyed reading your column and I wish you all the best.

I've really enjoyed your columns over the years (thanks, by the way), but the ending of this one was a bit abrupt and rather vague.

But, whatever. Thanks again and best wishes for the future.

You are a great columnist, and I'll miss reading them every week. Best of luck!!!!!

Like TX Fan, I also teach high school. I would turn on my computer on Monday morning and read your column to "gear myself up" for what the week may hold.

I have enjoyed your hilarious and touching words you have shared with us over the years and will miss your column.

Best of luck to you in what the future may hold! Thanks for what you have shared with us!

Articles like this aren't supposed to make me tear up. Life is change.

But for all of you fellow fans of Ms. Cannon, keep your eyes peeled to the SLTRIB. Great talent cannot be ignored.

Thank you, Ann. You are loved. Thank you for sharing your life with so many.

NOOOO!!!!
You're one of the reasons I actually subscribe to the print version of the DN! The feel of the paper in my hands as I read your column! Now why do I get it? So my kids can read the comics?!

Who do I write to protest this egregious, heinous thing?! Daggum. What a depressing morning.

Sigh.

Monday mornings won't be the same! Your column has been one of my favorite things about the Deseret News. It made me laugh and cry. I will miss the really bad sentence contest, your humor, and the way you made me feel like I could live through parenting too. Best of luck! I'll miss your insights.

I am so upset to lose yet another great feature of the Deseret News. Your column was something I looked forward to every Monday. With the loss of all the Features, I may as well cancel my print subcription.

Oh heck...I was afraid that was where this was going!

I love your columns...You will be truly missed!

I'm so sorry to see you leave. Your column is the first place I go to on Monday! Once again we all experience another negative consequence of the changes at Deseret News. You are an impossible act to follow and you will be missed!

Every week, as each of my three teen aged daughters trickle in from school on Mondays, their first thing to do (before eating anything) is to to read Ann Cannon's column. All three expressed disappointment at Ann's "moving on." Her column was the reason to read the Monday paper. She was successful in cheering up even the gloomiest Monday's--except today.

My daughter and I loved your column. I am sad that you, Jeff Vice and Scott Pierce are no longer in the Deseret News.

Soon, I won't have anyone left to read each day. Who is next? Who is going to make me laugh? The life section is getting pretty thin. The bloggers and syndicated columns are poor replacements for the good local columns I loved.

Best Wishes Ann.

Saturday in the Tribune is the new Monday in the D-News. See you there, Ann!

Ann, can you change your mind? I was devastated when I read your column this morning. I look forward to Mondays because of you. I will miss you, your sons, your dogs, your friends, your mother's poodle and the Avenues. Please don't leave me. I need you.

I will miss your weekly column. I have really enjoyed your stories, thoughts and bits of wisdom. I feel like I am saying farewell to a good friend! Thanks for the good times!

AHHH! I'm so sad to read you are no longer going to be writing your column in the D News! I will truly miss it. I love love your great sense of humor. thanks for all the great laughs and even the tears.

Oh man, not all change is good. Must be time for you and your husband to go on a mission. Best of luck in whatever you do, you have brought so much joy over the years.
