Anne was an amazing co-worker and mentor, but most of all my friend. Her strength and humor have left me with so many wonderful memories. Rest in Peace Anne until we meet again!

With heartfelt sympathy to the family. May fond memories of your loved one comfort you at this time. Please consider Psalm 145:18, 19. May those words bring you some consolation and a small measure of peace

Anne volunteered at the Diocesan Office when I was Superintendent of Schools.
She was a great help to all of us. Anne was always smiling and always very positive! We need more people like Anne.
