Anne Corssen died in her 86th year of life. She was a Registered Nurse as well as a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist. The study of healing mysteries was her work. Through creative cancer patients she was able to pursue her contract for learning. She was born of the love of her parents, Richard & Mary Guetzlaff, in Chicago, Illinois. Her late husband, Guenter Corssen, M.D., was a challenging mentor and heart partner. Amy Atkinson, her daughter, taught her to love deeply, and granddaughter, Gracie, was a pure gift. Donations to Crosier Community, PO Box 32705, Phoenix, Arizona 85064-2705 or to Duet-Partners in Health & Aging at: https://duetaz.org/donate/, would be appreciated. Loving thoughts and prayers to accompany her on her way to bountiful heaven and her Lord, Jesus Christ, are her heart’s desire.
