To Anne's dear family...The wonderful memories we hold dear to our hearts start way back to Federal Way in 1964. I was pregnant with Stacie and your Mom was like a sister to me. No matter what she was doing, she would stop everything and invite me in to share a cup of tea...on her best china and crystal! I learned from her the secret of becoming a hostess-in-training....no one could ever compare to her warm and welcoming ways! I never knew anyone who loved people more than Anne! She was interested in everyone and gave you her full attention. She was so open to learning about life and tried many avenues no matter how difficult they seemed to be....and would laughing admit if she wasn't all that good at them. She was so full of joy and passed it on to everyone. Anne was an accomplished cook...and I still have many of her wonderful recipes. Even tho we eventually moved away from WA, whenever we returned for a visit, she would invite all of our old friends to your home....or eventually meet many of us at a restaurant. No one will ever replace your Mom! She was the most down-to earth, loving....and classy woman I have ever known! What a great combination! I just can't say enough about your wonderful Mom. She was an inspiration to me and will forever be in the hearts of our whole family. We know that Anne is in heaven...surrounded in God's love...and continuing to welcome everyone when they arrive. We look forward to that day when we will meet again, dear friend. We treasure you and all you gave us while you were here. May you all be comforted to know that you had such a wonderful mother and grandmother. We send you all our love and condolences across the miles....Gerry, Delores, Valerie, Stacie (Moore) and family💕✝️🙏❤️😊
