    Anne had a wonderful spirit and was such a joy to be around when I knew her in Maintenance Division. She always had a smile and gracious manner. Lord be with her family in this time of loss.

    I worked with Anne at the SECPOC. She was such a joy to be around. We shared many laughs and I am grateful that God blessed me with her friendship and many wonderful memories. May God strengthen and comfort those she left behind.
