Dear Joan,

I just received an e-mail from Penny Patterson informing me of Ann's death.
Please offer our condolences to her family from my mother Martha and myself. I have fond memories of Ann and all of your family when I was a young girl in Gaspé.

Courage to all during this very difficult time. Our prayers are with you all.

My deepest condolences to Mr. Burk & family. I remember Anne well from when you both attended physiotherapy at CBI a few years ago - she always took the time to chat with me at the front desk. I remember her as a wonderful warm & caring woman,and I'm sure she'll be deeply missed by all her family & friends.

Our condolences to you, Neil, Jennifer and David. Anne was a great person and a cousin I (Don) will never forget. I will miss her phone calls on my birthday. We are sorry we cannot be with you on Friday. We will be thinking of you and remembering Anne and all of you in our prayers. Love to you all. Don & Inez
