Dearest Ruby & Family,  I am so saddened to hear of the loss of your beautiful mother.  Having met only on a few brief occasions.  My knowledge of her love, kindness, values, humor, appreciation of beauty lives on through you  her family and the love you have.  I experienced your mom through our friendship and so much of who she is remains within her family. Those little things will pop up and give you warm memories of times with her.    My heart breaks for you and your hurt pains me.    ---   R  I so wish I could comfort you.

Ruby our deepest sympathy to you and all your family on the passing of Anne.  We were privileged to have met such a lovely lady. Sending you a big hug from Ireland.  Jackie & Fergus Yvonne & Simone

What a beautiful soul that graced our lives as wife, mother, relative or friend. We all were truly blessed! Even though it has been years since our paths of life have crossed, I still remember when I first met Anne as a young girl; one of admiration of her kind and loving spirit. We wish to express our sorrow and prayers to you, Ron as well as to my cousins Ron,Corrie, and Ruby.

From the moment of first meeting Anne, I was struck by her beauty, grace and gentle kindness. A perfect match for my Uncle Ron. In memory, when she first visited our home in El Cajon, she pointed to my chair by the window which looks out on our neighborhood and beyond. She quietly said " I bet that's your favorite spot". I think of her often in my morning solitude. I hear her voice as I reflect in my "spot".  My love to all who love her. She lives in our hearts.

It was a great honor to have known Anne over the last five years I will miss her lovely face. Ron your kind and caring heart helped Anne enjoy life to the very end. My love and best wishes go out to all the family. Xx

Our love and prayers are with you.  Celebrate your Mom's wonderful life.
