My thoughts and prayers go out to all of Anne's family. She was a lovely lady who took me under her wing when I started at Jasper Place many many years ago. The students loved her as did I.
She will be greatly missed. ❤

Anne was a gem among gems. Her light shone bright to the benefit of her many students, at JPHS. She never gave up on her 'kids', always encouraging them to reach beyond the their highest abilities.
Having Anne's assistance,in my classroom, was a dream come true. She not only helped her students, but also any other student who needed just that little bit of extra encouragement. Even teachers, especially myself, were continually benefiting from Anne's giving ways.
It was my privilege to work with Dana, Anne's youngest daughter, as a top level student; then to meet her once again as a loving wife, mother and friend.
Anne loved her family dearly, often speaking of them and their own amazing children or sharing pictures, fun stories and events with her grandchildren.
She will be missed!

Gordon Yaciuk was my husband William Muir's grad student at UofM. We had connections with Anne and Gordon until Gordon's death. Our condolences to Anne's family.
