Condolences & Memories (1 entries)

  • Our family is so very sorry for your loss. Although we've never met I feel I know you all very well as I was Anne 's hairdresser for the last 28 years. She has shared many stories about you all with me (all good ones). I will miss Anne as she has been a part of my life for so long. She has known my boys since they were born and ALWAYS sent me home with something to give them. An orange, little chocolates etc. Even one time she didn't have anything so she tried sending me home with a boost or endure drink. I can say one thing for sure that she would be happy in being reunited with her son, whom she missed terribly. She has cried almost every time I've done her hair since his passing. So for that reason alone be happy for her but I know you will all miss her terribly .... Hugs to the family - Posted by: Donna Deveau (Her hairdresser) on: Nov 18, 2015
