Very sorry to learn of Ann’s death. We grew up together in Exeter. Went to elementary & high school together. I remember her as nice, quiet and very smart. Even though I have not seen her for many years I will miss her.

Tom. I was so sorry to hear of your beloved sister Anne’s passing. When I saw her a couple months ago I still remember her kind and happy personality. Always took time to chat. She will always be remembered with love. Stay strong my friend.

Tom:
I had hoped to stop into the church on Thursday to offer our condolences but in the end I was unable to make it. Had a visit with Ann quite often at the post office since we got moved into town. We always admired how she kept the house and gardens so well manicured. Your family had a rich heritage in our community Tom and I know Ann ‘s quiet presence will be missed by those who knew her.

Tom and family. I have had Ann on my mind many times since we met at the hospital a few months back. So funny at the time that we were both from Exeter and had the same given names, confused the staff for a wee bit. My deepest condolence to you for the loss of a great sister and friend.

Tom & Jacqueline-It is with deep sadness to hear of your loss of Ann-these last few weeks were difficult for all of you and a blessing that she will no longer be suffering. Ann was a lovely lady who always had a smile when I saw her and she had such a great sense of humour that was always a part of her no matter how she was feeling. I will miss her in our neighbourhood but she will never be forgotten. I know that you and your family stood by her and supported her wishes and I am sure that you have a lot of good memories of earlier years that will give you peace in the coming days ahead. .God Bless !
