ANNE NIXON Obituary

NIXON--Anne. It is with great love that we announce the passing of Anne Knoll Nixon. A native of Chicago, an inveterate New Yorker, and culture vulture extraordinaire, Anne worked for Mademoiselle Magazine, Goodson and Todman Productions, The College of Insurance, and the Girl Scouts (among many others). She is mourned by daughter Cynthia, grandchildren Samantha, Charlie and Max, daughter-in-law Christine and her love of 37 years David Rind. We loved her so much.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

Oh My God- I just found out about Anne´s passing- RIP- dear Anne. I worked for you at The College of Insurance in early 80s while going to school there. You were the best manager/employer one could ask for. You were a terrific human being with a heart of Gold. I am truly honored to have known you, David and your little girl at the time; I believe her name is Cynthia. You and David invited me at your residence few times during Thanksgiving, Christmas. You made me feel part of the family. You were a `class act´ Anne. You always used to talk about your daughter and her passion with theatre etc. I wish I know where David and Cynthia are now. You even came to my graduation in 1985- picture attached. You will be missed Anne. My deepest condolences to the family.

I had the pleasure of working, side-by-side cubicles, with Anne at Girl Scouts. We were also roommates during a conference in Minneapolis. She was a great co-worker/friend.

We didn't know Anne was from Chicago. We knew her as the quintessential New Yorker. We just feel blessed that we knew her. She will most certainly be missed. Love The Porter Madison Family

It had been a privilege to know Anne. Her example of how to live as a humane, loving, fair person will be an inspiration for me for the rest of my life.
