Dear Anna, my second Mom, you are now with our Lord. No more pain and suffering – no more feeling helpless and not able to do the things you once did. You are now with Bill.Joyce & Don – I miss you and fondly remember or chats and dinners out. All my love, Vivian
My sympathies on the passing of Anne. Don & I were the first to give Anne and Bill grandchildren. I remember sewing a suit for our son, Ken, it turned out great thanks to Anne cutting the material out for me. It was passed on to some of the later grandsons. I don’t have a picture of it, but here is one of Susan at about 7 weeks.
So sorry about Auntie Anne,I mainly remember a lovely lady and visiting with all our cousins as we were growing up. Still have the history of the Kroeker family that she wrote.
Sorry, the picture that I sent was of Anne with 4 of her grandchildren taken the Spring of 1972. Susan, Tim, Dan, and Ken Richter.
I will always remember Aunty Anne’s smiling face and loving hands whenever and wherever she was needed …
Auntie Anne
I always remember the excitment of going to visit Auntie Anne in Williams Lake. I was a very shy kid but Auntie Anne and Uncle Bill made everything feel relaxed and easy and I could be myself. doesn’t surpirse me that she ‘up and left’ and took off for ‘home’. Best Wishes to my cousins out there who are saying goodbye to their Mom.
I don’t have a lot of pictures on my computer but I do have a ton of good memories of Aunty Anne.
I will always remember her big smile, lots of stories of the past and a big welcome every time we came by.
Dear Joan and Dave, Condolences on the passing of your Mum. I remember you showing me photos of her at a family gathering and how proud you were of her. All the best, Liz and Mike Harley
Our deepest sympathy to the Kroeker and Richter family. Anne has been an important part of our lives. She has enriched us in so many different ways. She will always have a special place in our hearts.Anne was not only a mother in law and a grandma, but a true friend.
Love,
Michelle and Laure.
I was just a child in elementary school when we rented parking space for our “trailer” on their property in Williams Lake.
But I remember your Mom and Dad. I know that they loved each one of you, because Ann would mention you when I would
“pester” her for company.
Thank you for sharing your partents with me when I was growing up. God bless you and keep you all ways.
Cathy
My deepest thoughts are with the family left. Anne will now be with her Bill and at peace from pain. A wonderful woman and we will remember her.
