Anne was one of the most selfless people I have ever known. She lived for her family and loved ones. She chose to spend her teaching career where it wasn't easy, but she was needed the most. When I was starting out 7 years ago, I knew nothing. God had the wisdom to allow me to share a portable with Anne. When I was down which was often! Anne was always there to pick me up. She believed in me before I believed in myself. She saved my sanity. In some ways, the fact that I am still teaching, is due to Anne. Anne's impact on this world reaches far and wide - she gave her all to her family, twenty years of students, and all the teachers she helped that will continue to touch the lives of students for years to come. I am sad that you are gone, dear friend, but I know that you are free from pain and worry, wrapped in God's loving embrace. I will remember you forever. With Love.

We taught together for a long time. I will miss your smiling face. Rest my friend, for you are with the one who loves you best. Sheila Greene
