I, Cat's mother-in-law, am so grateful that I got to know Anne and that she got to know Nova.
I'll always remember her as tenacious, wicked smart, hilarious, compassionate, courageous, a meticulous seamstress, wonderful storyteller (what amazing life stories!), hard worker and voracious reader, someone who loved deeply and suffered no fools. I always trusted her to be exactly who she was, and felt safe opening my heart to her.
Her beloved Cat surely inherited many of these fine qualities - she was so very proud of Cat and loved her so dearly.
I'll always admire Anne showing up for outings, despite her pain and mobility challenges. She was a trooper.
Among her many legacies for the family will be the incredibly intricate kilts she made for Scot, Brit and George for Scot and Cat's wedding. Personally, I'll always cherish the needlepoint pillow she made for me one Christmas.
I'll always be grateful that she honored (humored) me, the insufferable photographer, with a few smiles despite hating to have her picture taken, a great gift!
I'd also like to shout out to John, her faithful companion and caregiver - always by her side with a smile and quip.
We will speak of her often to Nova, that she will know the strength and character that is her inheritance.
Blessed be Anne, Rest in Peace and Power. Your memory will be a blessing to us.
