Dear Tom and Family,
Our heartfelt sympathy to all of you on the loss of such a very special loved one. I had the privilege of working with Anne and learning from her during our many years together at FCC.

Slater family and friends of Anne, please accept my condolences. Anne was a pioneer in so many ways, it was an honor to know her. She was one of my mom’s dearest friends, and she was such a good friend to her. Anne has fans everywhere. A truly amazing human!

I had the privilege of having Mrs. Slater as my English teacher at Brunswick High School. She was determined to prepare the students in the class for college. I'm sorry I was never able to tell her that no one prepared me more for college than she did. She was a truly dedicated educator. My heartfelt condolences to her family and friends as they celebrate her remarkable life.
