Anne Marie was my cousin. The last time I saw her was at our cousin's funeral. Although we didn't keep in close contact, she was family and we were deeply saddened to hear of her passing. We live on Keuka Lake in the summer and only heard of her passing yesterday.

Kathy, Paul, Danny and family, I am so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. While sitting on my dad's porch the other night, I sat and watched down and across the street to your family home. Remembering all the days and nights we spent as kids playing in the yard and sitting on the fence. Remembering how much fun it was to sit in the kitchen and talk with your mom. The days of Sardines and crackers with your dad. All the days she would run us to school when the weather was bad even though she hated to drive in the snow...Our parents are a wonderful part of us and I want you to know that your parents area wonderful part of your friends lives also. I know I haven't seen her in years but I will always remember what a great lady she was. I will cherish the memories she has instilled in me because she played a wonderful part of my childhood as I am sure she did for all your friends..
God bless Anna....she has earned her place in heaven for the beautiful woman she was to all the lives she touched. I thank you for sharing her with me too..

She came into the store i worked at a couple of weeks ago. When i first looked at her i was so busy i didn't immediatly say hello because i was so surprised to see her there. she called out to me "what's the matter with you? aren't you going to say hi to your cousin?" with a big smile. Anna Marie was a very important part of our family and neighborhood.
