I'm sorry that I couldn't be there on Saturday, but have been thinking about Anne - and the whole family - these past 10 days. One of my first memories of knowing her was thinking that we had a movie star in our family (given her resemblance to Margot Kidder). Anne was a lovely person, with a beautiful laugh. She'll be missed.

You certainly left this world too soon. You were funny, smart and beautiful! It was great seeing you at our class reunion last year.

I remember Anne from our time working together at the Vet School and she was always especially kind to her coworkers and the animals. I am sorry to hear of her passing, and send my condolences to her loved ones.

Anne was like a second mom to me growing up. I consider myself lucky to have so many good memories of her: camping, the cabin, and Sea Crest :D. How she loved to laugh! Mr. Boston. Anne never showed anything but unconditional love for all of Scotts friends, and I'll miss her dearly. My deepest sympathies to Scott, Rachel, Steve, Margaret, Deborah and the other family and friends that loved her.

Oh what fun and laughs we had in Junior High and High School. Some of my best memories are of you, Becky and me. You were one of the funniest people I have ever met. You left us way to soon. I will miss you my friend.

Anne's sudden death leaves the biggest hole in my heart and in anyone's heart who knew her. She was a true gift on this earth. My Aunt Anne was the best possible godmother I could have ever imagined and I will cherish every single moment, memory, and laugh I had with her. My heart hurts for the deep loss that her entire family is feeling. Especially Scott, she had the deepest love for him and was always so proud to be his mother. We are all so lucky for the joy she brought to all of our lives and we will continue to celebrate her life every single day.

I am so sorry to learn of the loss of Anne. I worked with Anne at the Georgia Center & always counted her as one of my favorite people. She was fun to be around. Stephen, you & family are in my thoughts & prayers.

Anne's sudden death is shocking and my deepest sympathy goes to Steve, especially Scott, and Deborah. Her new grandchild, Emmeline, who I'm blessed to share, brought great joy to Anne in their too-short time together. She will be always remembered.

Anne's sudden death leaves a hole in the hearts of all who loved her, and my deepest sympathy goes to Steve, especially Scott, and Deborah. Her loss leaves a hole in the life of the new grand-daughter Emmeline, who she and I share. In her brief time on this earth this little angel brought much joy to Anne.
