Dear Bob and Katie, life brings people in and out of our lives, sometimes more swiftly than we want. Although Ann and I were only briefly friends, the moment we met, we felt like we had known each other forever. This made telling her, I was moving from SW extremely difficult. We both cried that day. I cherish the time we spent chatting about our lives. She blew my mind away when she shared with me all the things she had done and accomplished. I was in awe of her and I always will be. May your memories of her pick you up during the most difficult days ahead and may the love she had for you, wrap around you like a warm blanket on a cold night. Thank you for sharing her with us.❤️
Dear Bob, Katie, and the rest of the family, I'm so very sorry for your loss. Ann was a force of nature, so vibrant, brilliant, funny, and kind. A great mentor too. It was a joy and a privilege to work with her at HHS. I'm grateful for so many wonderful memories. May she RIP and may your cherished memories eventually bring you a measure of comfort and peace.
To Anne's surviving family members, I am so sorry for your loss. I knew and worked with Anne during her ACEP years . She was indeed a very special person. So full of energy and vitality. I was always amazed how anyone could know so many people in Washington, DC. She will be missed by many.
I had the pleasure and privilege to work with Ann at ACEP. She was not only a colleague but a wonderful friend. Deepest sympathy to her family that she loved dearly.
I am so sorry for your loss of sweet Ann. I have so many wonderful memories of her and no matter what I was working on, she had help to offer. From selling pies for middle school, to backstage baseball, theater and comedy improv, ocean lifeguarding, professional makeup, medical facial injury and recovery, and even to my learning about my religion, Judaism, Ann had knowledge to share and always ready to help. I miss her. RIP and condolences to your family.
Ann was an amazing woman. I worked with her on several projects when she was in the Secretary's office at HHS. She was a powerhouse, passionate and compassionate. I am so greatful that we had such wonderful memories together. My heart goes out to her family whom she loved dearly. God bless you.
Dear Bob, Katie, and Ann's entire family; we are so very sorry to hear of Ann's passing, and hope that she will truly now rest in peace. You are in our thoughts and prayers, and hope that you will find peace in time as well. We hope to see you when you come to New England. Love, Joanie and John Dower
