Anne Demontfort Devitt
24 Oct 1957 through 9 Dec 2013
Always Artiste in All and Every.
Yea: Dance, Theater,
Early Ragstock,
Latterly Refind Vintage Linens.
Por la courage:
Vinnie, Maeve, Jack;
Daddy, Mama, sisters and brothers;
Vickie, Katherine.
Wire to wire she ran;
Straight, stout and true.
But there be Life, Love,
And Time lost.
That's what it comes down to
'Till the train run out of track.
Never has such ever been
Nor shall another be,
So kind, enduring,
Beautiful and brave
As Dearest Annie D!

I was priveliged to be onstage with Anne- to drink in her fierce and unsentimental joy in movement,her absolute physical commitment. I see my (slightly shaking)hands clicking her into a safety harness under a bridal gown,and watching her LEAP out into space, into a truly terrifying long pendulum swing high in the arch of the Southern Theater. Flying. Fearless. Thank you, Anne.

3 months later.Think she was 16 when she

Beautiful young lady.

There were so many ways our minds met, but then she would surprise and challenge me. It was like having another keen set of eyes to notice, appreciate, maybe even understand this crazy life! Beautiful Anne, we will miss you.

I will always remember taking care of the loft in the Minneapolis warehouse district for Vince and Anne while they were out of town. I thought they were two of the coolest people on the planet. They led such interesting lives, and they had this crazy Mynah bird! I didn't know know Anne really well but I know she loved life and lived it gracefully. This world will miss her.

Anne lit up any room with a surge of positive energy, an infinite smile and contagious enthusiasm! She created beauty all around her and was such an amazingly present, supportive, loving, nurturing and inspirational mother! I am blessed beyond words to have known her and to have been able to shed tears of hope with her in our final embrace. Maeve, Jack, Vinny - ALL MY LOVE. God bless your mother as her spirit continues it's journey ! joyous travels Anne! You taught me, listened to me, invited me into your home and truly touched my heart. I love you.
