Brant and I were devastated to hear about the loss of Anna. I remember Anna fondly and mostly as a beautiful and energetic preschooler, but was happy to see them playing Valley Ultimate, and in the newspaper for their sports achievements. We're so sorry for your loss, and are holding your family in the light at this terrible time.

Working and having fun with Anna in the Amherst Sunrise Movement as well as at Morse Hill are moments I will not forget. They were a fantastic activist with a fun, can-do spirit. My deep condolences to their family and close friends.

In so very sorry for you loss, sorry that I will never have a chance to meet Anna, and sorry for the pain you must feel. I know from personal experience that it never easy to loose a loved one. And that puts it lightly. Anna will be remembered, their legacy will live with both those who knew them and those who didn’t. Their time was unfairly cut short and while that can never be made up, we must do our very best to share with the world the insanely awesome person who was Anna Burns. My condolences to their family and to all who knew them.

I remember an early elementary age Anna running around the soccer field, an older elementary age Anna regaling the class with their sailing adventures, and an engaging and fun high school Anna hanging out with the adults on the last day of school at the Waldmans'. We are all heartbroken and are holding Anna's dear ones in our thoughts and prayers.

I never had the privilege of knowing Anna, but just from hearing from people who care about them it's clear to see that they were a truly exceptional person. I am sending all of my love to anyone dealing with the grief from this terrible loss.

I was fortunate enough to have Anna in my Health class during their freshman year as well as my Adventure Ed class last year. Over the course of our time together, I grew a deep appreciation for Anna’s kind soul and infectious laugh. Anna was so easy to talk to and I enjoyed chatting with them and their peers while our class went for our walk each day. I can only hope they knew how much I looked forward to those 10 minutes together each day.

Anna has made me a better teacher and I’m forever grateful for the impression they left on my life.

I am thinking about and sending my love to all those who loved Anna. I am holding you dear in my heart. My condolences to the Burns-Goff family and a big thank you for sharing your Anna with all of us.

I’m so sorry to everyone who was really close to Anna - they were the first person who taught me how to play zone in ultimate last year and they were always so patient with explaining and literally one of the most wild players I’ve ever had the honour of playing with. Their unexpected layouts and speed/precision in cup was unlike anything I’ve ever seen before - even just the energy they brought to every game was more than enough to make anyone want to get up and play. They accomplished so many things and were a truly amazing person - the world will never be the same without their illuminating smile and optimism.
