Not sure what to say?

I met anet while attending earlham. Two years leter, we shared an apartment in nyc while she worked at the Natural history Museum. i am shocked and saddened to hear of her untimely death, especially b/c she was always the perfect picture of health and took very good care of herself. Anet never judged anyone and cared nothing about money. She was intent upon loving everyone in her path and creating beauty and meaning through her art. Anet is one of a few people i have ever known to live life...

I was with Anet in Kenya, and loved her dearly. Sadly, we lost track of each other over the years. She was a bright light and the world will be a little less without her in it. My condolences to her family.

I am sure that she showed so much endurance in the face of her illness to preserve her rosy complection. A stout, elegant and gentle woman with the strong will of an activist to follow her artistic, loving, caring, confident and fair spirit.

So sorry to hear about Anet...I remember when she was a young girl, working part time in the Summer months, at her dad's business. She was always energetic and had so many plans for the future...sounds like she accomplished much in her young life. Our thoughts are with her family.. sincerely, Chris and Steve Sturgil

My warmest sympathies go to all Anet's family, friends and pets, in both the sad loss and magical celebration of Anet's amazing life and friendship. Thanks James for all the great times. Love love love forever. Bowes

Sweet Anet
As John Lennon aptly wrote:
"The love you take is equal to the love you make". You are dearly loved by so many. So celebrated. So missed. Peace.

My memories of Anet at George School are flooding back, but my favorite memory is when we both lived in San Francisco at the time of the 1989 earthquake. She pedaled her bicycle across the city to check on me. The phones and power were out. I looked out the window and saw her riding down the hill. A neighbor had a battery operated boom box blasting out an open window. It was playing Carole King's song, "I feel the earth move under me feet. I feel the sky tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling...

I am so sorry for you Anet, not so long ago I was with you and you looked perfect to me. My condolences to Jhon and your family. All my love for you and them wherever you are.

Anet is a beautiful soul I admired greatly.
