My condolences over the death of Anne Dowton. Anne was a good friend to my late parents, Jim & Agnes Connel in California. I am their daughter, and I was also the recipient of Anne's friendship. I will long remember my visits with Anne when I have been in Winnipeg. She always served me a delicious cup of tea, sandwich, and a sweet. I believe our loving God has now reunited you with your beloved sisters, brother, and all those you loved who went before you. You were an inspiration to live 98 years. Peace be with you, dear friend. Love, Linda - Posted by: Linda Connel Revere (Friend) on: Feb 17, 2015
