My thoughts and prayers have been with Anne and her family. Please accept my deepest sympathy. I became friends with Anne at St. Matthews school many years ago. I admired Anne for her strong faith, intelligence, desire to do the right thing, and passion. I treasure all the memories. Our fathers were friends, our mothers were friends, and I counted her among one of my oldest friends. Anne touched many lives and made the world a better place. We attended Regis High School Reunions together. Anne was an inspiration who holds a special place in my heart. I hope the outpouring of love will offer some comfort for your family and friends.

Guestbook
I went to school with Anne from Kindergarten through most of high school. Last time I saw Anne was our 20 year high school reunion shortly after her daughter Marie was born. I am saddened to hear of her death, I admired and respected Anne. My sympathies and prayers to her family.
Anne was known to many because of her great work to advance family-friendly policies. Our staff at the University of Minnesota Labor Education Service was honored to have Anne work with us on our women’s programming. She was a popular instructor at our biennial women’s retreat. We will miss her and extend our deepest sympathies to her family.
Bryant, words can not express how deeply sorry I am and the sadness I feel in my heart for you and your children in learning about Anne’s death. May your memories and love of Anne bring you and your children comfort and peace and help ease the pain in your hearts. I am here for you if you ever want me to be.
My sympathies to Bryant and children. I enjoyed my time spent at your house watching Tom and Marie (Caroline hadn’t been born yet). I will always remember Annes Pizza Hut order of Canadian Bacon, Bread Sticks and a Pepsi. 🙂 She was an amazing women and will be missed!
Keep thinking of all of you in Anne’s family. She loved children. That is how I knew her. She helped United Way with our Success By 6 efforts. The last time I saw Anne at the Human Service Council candidate forum she was sharp as ever and speaking from her heart and her head. Amazing amazing woman.
Our sincere sympathies to you and your children. Ann was a high flying I can do anything person and she will be dearly missed.
My sincere sympathies to Bryant and children. Anne was a brilliant person and had a brave soul in the face of serious illness.
