Determined, hardworking and resilient, Anne met her many challenges with stubborn strength and style.

Julie,
Susan and I were saddened to hear of the passing of your mother. I did not know her, but she sounds like an amazing woman who raised wonderful kids, including you. Her support of the AFS Foundation was generous and consistent. Her gifts were an extension of her love of teaching and enabled students to study abroad. That is a wonderful legacy. Sincerely, Eric and Susan
