To all family members of Anne my deepest sympathy, I've had the pleasure of knowing Anne for almost ten years and have fond memories of meeting her in Popponestt. I could hear as I approach her home someone singing so sweetly, one thing I didn't know is that she sang opera. So many smiles too!!! I loved her stories of all the people that came to the cape for summer vacations. Thanks for the memories Debbie Regan Century21 Reagn Realtors
