Anne Lechner

To Anne's Family;

Anne was a truly brillant woman! I loved her poise and the sound of her laughter. With her passing, so much of the history and knowledge she possessed in the field of social services will forever be lost to those of us who remain. She touched so many lives and made them all the better.

I enjoyed working with Anne and had a lot of admiration for her as a professional and a person dealing with cancer. She handled her situation with valor and grace.

Sarah and Kate,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Love,
Amy and Kevin

Dear Katie and Sarah:
Please know you are in our thoughts during this very difficult time. We hope you will find comfort going forward in the many wonderful times you shared with your Mom and the memories those adventures have left you with. Carry on as the strong women she raised you to be, she will always be watching with pride and joy. Terri & Arnie Dingman

I had the "adventure" of working with Anne, when we were both at Devereux. I say adventure - because Anne was such a character - one of those rare larger-than-life people. As I would run into her occassionally during her long illness, or hear about her - I was always awed by her continuing sense of wit, humor and strength. She lived life to the fullest. I wish her and her family, peacefulness.

Katie my prayers are with you and your family. Your mom will be missed and remembered always.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. We will miss seeing Anne's smiling face and her hats when she came in to see us for testing.

Sara and Kate, Your mom was such a blessing in my life having been her secretary at Devereux Outpatient for 2 1/2 years. She taught me much. My thoughts and prayers are with you both in this time of great loss. I will remember her always.

Paul J. and Linda Losier
