Charlie and family:
My condolences to you. Vivid memories of Anne and her colourful personality for me go back many years, to she and John accompanying their Dad delivering hay for the horses to our farm (Duff Mills) in Woodham. Not knowing then that we would later spend many years working together at Campbell Soup. An attentive listener, Anne helped many along the road of life ‘s lessons. May you each go gently in your grief journey with her spirit close in your heart.
