A Love Letter To Anne and Family
The sweetest “Old Miami” neighborhood was where we lucky little people shared our childhood!
We delighted in balmy sun kissed days and knew for sure…Our parents loved each other, us, and our way of life…
Alice and Larry and their four girls, all as bright as the neon signs Larry’s company created to cast their shine over the Florida skyline. We lived where family came first!
Anne artfully carved her own path from this “Magic City” to Gainesville and beyond. A Teacher’s Teacher, revered, respected, honored, who’s list of credits only comparable to her wit, her clever, her caring ways, and loving thoughts. Her “Holiday Cards” this artist's expression of all the many colors, shapes, and endless creativity of our Anne… An exemplary model of Mother, Daughter, Sister, Friend, Colleague, and Wise Sage…
We all love and will miss you beyond measure…Anne and her sister Mary enjoyed an extraordinary connection…Summers in New Hampshire and always an itinerary of museums, art shows, and sights to inspire Tall Tales!!!
We believe there is a Heaven and Anne and Mary are in it…Reunited to resume their adventures,
travels, and God Willing….Their Mischief!!!
