Anne was a wonderful nurse to work with. When you yelled “I need some help in here, “ she was there. She was a leader and a friend. You may not see eye to eye on everything but she was always there for you. My friend, I will miss talking to you on the phone.

Our mothers were sisters and she was 11 months older than me. I remember going to the drive-in here in Marshall with her when we were teenagers. She would drive all the way from California here to see her grandparents and any car trouble she had along the way she could fix the car herself.
She actually carried extra parts. She was very talented I don’t believe there was anything she couldn’t do. She was always there for her family and friends and she would do anything for you. I remember being with her when she bought all these children books and she put them away and said I got those for when I have grandchildren so I can read to them. I will miss her. All my love to her kids and her grandkids and her sisters and her brothers.
