Not sure what to say?

Dick and I send our sympathy to Anne's family.
I have known Anne for over 70 years. My twin sister, June,
and I played with Anne when we were in elementary school.
When she moved away, I would send letters to her. I still
have the letters Anne sent to me.
Anne, Bob, and Bev visited Dick and me when they came back East almost 8 years ago. We had a lovely time with
them.
I will miss Anne and the emails she would send.
Fondly,
Jane Calandrella Blagden

I never knew Anne personally, but I would like to send my condolences to the family. She sounds like she was very full of life and lived a life full of God, love, and family. As everyone celebrates her life, they can celebrate her new life in the presence of Christ!

Anne; Sorry to hear that you have departed, Allways enjoyed working with you at Albertsons. You will be greatly missed. Our condolences to all your family.
Rest in peace

Grandma, nana, friend, teacher, inspiration and strength....I am most thankful for the Lord's grace and beauty as He showed up in that smile of yours...the wisdom you shared as you assured me Jesus was holding your hand, the love you showed for everyone and the genuine way you welcomed all who came or called into your presence. I will most treasure those heart to hearts we shared over the last year, the smiles as we laughed about losing hair...eye brows...teeth..all the little things that...

ANNE,
I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU AS MY CHILDHOOD FRIEND WHO LIVED IN THE HOUSE WITH THE VERANDAH ON LAKE STREET IN ARLINGTON, MA. (AT LEAST 70 YEARS AGO!)
WE KEPT IN TOUCH OVER THE YEARS SINCE YOU MOVED TO OREGON. IT WAS SO GREAT WHEN YOU CAME TO MASSACHUSETTS BACK A FEW YEARS AGO AND WE GOT TO SPEND SOME TIME TOGETHER REMINISCING.
BEING STRONG WOMEN, WE WERE ABLE TO CARRY ON WITH OUR LIVES AFTER LOSING OUR BELOVED HUSBANDS.
I AM SURE OWEN WAS WAITING FOR YOU WITH OPEN...

I agree with my sister Diane...Baker visits with Uncle Owen and Anne were priceless! Listening to the two of them banter back and forth was quite entertaining. They truly loved each other and I'm happy they are together once again. Bless your heart Anne. I will miss your birthday and anniversary cards! I will miss you. Marianne Spence, Donna and Anna Snodgrass

We have lots of great memories of Anne. She was a great listener, and had a wonderful sense of humor. We always enjoyed our visits with her, and Uncle Owen. Our family has great respect and appreciation for her influence in our lives too. We haven't been able to see her for a long while, but, kept in touch by email. I will miss those, and miss her. Our love and respect to all of her family. Diane(Spence), Pat, Jeremy, Emily Davis

Anne was a great person and will always be loved and missed by our family.

Anne You will be missed very much. With love from Margi and Sean
