I learned of Anne's passing when my Christmas card came back to me a few days ago. I taught with Anne at Annandale High School in 1961-1964--my first teaching job. Four of us used to do our school work at home so we could play bridge at school in our off time. She and I had always kept in touch from time to time around Christmas time. I will miss being in touch with this lovely lady.

Anne moved next door to us in 1989 two years after Bill and I had moved to Isle of Palms. She was a much treasured friend for thirty years and like another grandmother to Kylie Elaine Sepulveda who spent many hours visiting Miss Anne over the years. Our hearts go out to Candy England Surratt and her parents Ken and Jeanne England as well as the rest of the family who loved Anne dearly. We will all miss her.
