I still think of you everyday and wish you were here but I feel your presence. I miss your fabulous smile, phone calls, and girl talk. Love you always! DB

Annie,  Although it has been just over three years since we physically saw each other, I am comforted by knowing that you are and will always be with me in spirit; whether walking the shores of Lake Michigan in the summers where I can feel your presence with every piece of green lake glass I find nestled among the small stones along the shore line.... or creating something  spectacular outa something so ordinary during  the off seasons in the desert.... maybe something with  green lake glass.  xo, L.

My dear sister, I miss you every day. So many times I go to pick up the phone to tell you something.  Instead I tell you from my heart. Will always love and miss you! DB 

Sweet Anne,
I know my memories of you will not come as a surprise to anyone reading this message.  I hope that throughout our friendship you knew how incredibly special you were to me as a true friend.  I never saw you run out of kindness or clever comebacks, nor did you ever lack thinking “outside the box. “ If a hug was needed, your arms were open; if venting was to be had, you were present, and always generous in offering support. You were always ready for a spontaneous celebration or crafting some “girl-time” at the drop of a hat, making an ordinary get-together take on the life of an extraordinary event.

When the opportunity arose to junk, thrift, hit the salvage yards, or drive through unfamiliar neighborhoods in search of yard sale treasures, you were ready with your boots on! Thank you for sharing some of those times with me. You always found the best in everyone and everything. I will be forever inspired by your unique style, unparalleled creativity and ability to see potential in whatever caught your eye or nourished your unbridled imagination.  You brought laughter, good times and a unique perspective into my life, and I will cherish them always.

Annie, it is with such great sadness and heartache you were the one chosen to remind us that life is short, fragile and can be taken away unexpectedly, anywhere, at any time.  Of all the things I learned from you, I wish this reality had not been one of them.  I will miss you in my life and I promise you will always be remembered. You will be thought of with kindness and appreciation for your friendships and the lives you touched.  Things you once said, made or re-purposed will pop up in conversations because you were relevant and loved by those who got to know you. I know we will still talk.  And on those days when I’m thrifting, junking or hitting yard sales, and I find something truly exceptional, uniquely fabulous and worth bringing home, I know you will be there with me to revel in the fun!  

xo, Leanne


Dearest Anne, 
We knew each other about a year. You graduated about a year after I became a Sigma Kappa. I believe your first job was with IBM? I remember your raspy voice, and self assured personality. You are gone but not forgotten. All of us that were a part of your life even for a short time were so lucky to have you to look up to.  
To Anne’s family: Thank you for having this memorial page. God bless you all. 💜

Annie was my sorority sister and friend.  She was so happy in her life and it showed.  She talked about Tommy, and her brother, and how she loved them.  Anne’s smile could light up a room and her was laughter contagious.  She will be greatly missed.

I am so thankful for all the years we have shared together!  We had  so many deep talks waking to GP North everyday together for 4 years!  I always loved to see what coat  and pair of gorgeous boots you would be wearing on the way to school!!!  So many fun  middle school, and high school memories .... college, sorority,  the memories are endless. My heart is just broken.  My prayers are with Tom and “Donnie” .   Don, Anne always looked up to you.  She absolutely adored you!   So very sorry for your loss.  Praying comfort for you Tom at this difficult time.  Thanking God for so many wonderful times with sweet Anne!

So heartbroken to lose this wonderful vibrant  person in my life. The best listener in the world, greatest laugh, gorgeous smile. The world won’t be the same without Anne. So many will miss  this beautiful woman as she left her mark in this world leaving all of us way too soon. 

Oh Annie,
You were so adventurous.  Our ski trips to Crystal, spring breaks in Ft. Lauderdale. And the Arizona hiking trip I so badly wanted to go w you.  U always saw the best of everything.  Always remember you saying "Sue-bob lets go!"     
My heart goes out to Tom and Don.  The kappas will always be your sisters.  One heart one way.💜💜💜

My dear Anne, my sister, how can you be gone so soon? We had so many trips, visits and laughs to share. My heart is broken and I will forever remember your beautiful smile and sharp wit. I am so thankful for the day we spent with you and Tom in AZ.  So many great times in Marine City and Grosse Pointe with you and your family.  I will always remember you my sister. Rest In Peace. Love always, DB

Oh, sweet Anne.  Such a happy lady.  So kind, caring and thoughtful. You will be missed by so many.  May you rest in the hands of God. Prayers to your family.
