Annie Bleth Obituary
ANNIE (RAE ANN) JULIA BLETH
March 25, 1942 ˜ February 13, 2023
Annie left us Feb. 13, 2023, after a short illness. She had just returned from her wedding anniversary cruise when she developed lung issues which could not be corrected. She was celebrating 60 years of marriage to her husband, Pete, whom she had known since the 8th grade. Ann is survived by her husband; son, Robert “Chuck”; grandchildren, Hannah and Andrew; along with Pete’s brother, Leonard; and his wife, Carol. Early retirement from a career as a legal secretary allowed her to develop a love for golf which she enjoyed playing at Fairway Village in Vancouver and her winter home in Palm Springs. Recently her golf group in Palm Springs honored her passing by posting a plaque during one of their recent outings. The outpouring of sympathy from her friends shows the wonderful relationship she had with everyone who came in contact with her. Ann was cremated in accordance with her wishes and a celebration is planned for a later date.

Sorry to hear her passing. I worked with her when I was first out of law school. She taught me a lot about how to be a good attorney.
