Anne's parents were close friends of my parents and we were all in BeachHaven, NJ each summer. It was a happy surprise to join the Suburban Garden Club a
nd find Anne, who was a long time member. Happy memories of working together on the Merion Cricket Club Flower committee as well as a wonderful trip to England with SGC to visit gardens and see the Chelsea Flower Show. She thrived at Beaumont when she retired there. I will miss her.
