To the Kane family -

I just received a note from Dottie Durkin telling me of Anna Marie's death. Both Bobby and I are so sorry for your loss. She was always so warm. I don't know which sparkled more - her eyes or her smile. I know you will all miss her terribly. But I'm certain that my mom and dad have given her a warm embrace and are once again thoroughly enjoying her company.

All our love -
Julie Slattery-Brown, Bobby Brown and family

Dear Bill and your wonderful family -
It is with a saddened heart that we send our deepest sympathies to you on the passing of your dearest Anna Marie and Mother to a great family. Our fondest memories of you both extend to the time we stayed at your home before and after Fr. Tom's celebration of 50 years in the priesthood. That was a while ago, but we often reminisce of the splendid days we spent with you both. Now the time has come for our beautiful and most worthy role model to go to the Father. He will certainly embrace her, as Anna Marie fulfilled the many lofty tasks set before her as Mother, Wife and Friend!! I fondly remember the day you were both married, and the picture taken of you and her remains among my sweetest memories - - a beautiful and handsome couple and so lasting for lo these many years. With love and prayerful blessings - Don and Ann (Drennan) Forsyth

To Leo and the entire Kane family,

What a wonderful life and incredible legacy. I never knew your mum but when I read what you wrote about her it was overwhelming how much you clearly loved your mother and how deep your respect was for her as a person. I am sorry I was not able to make it for the service but I want you and your family to know that I am thinking of you and celebrating a life that was truly well lived. With my dearest sympathy,

We learn so much by watching others. Aunt Anna Maria had a Phd. in love and we all learned much by her example. What a beautiful person she was. I'll miss her smile and sparkling blue eyes. Always a sunny day on Anna Marie Ave.

We will miss a magnificent, dear saint of a woman! Bob and Bernadette Mitchell
