I am heartbroken to learn of Anne's passing. We were dear friends in high school where she was adorable, classy, fun, energetic and just an all-around "great kid". She and Terri (may she rest in peace) and I would pal around together and had so much fun. Anne was kind, generous and a delight to be around. I saw her through the years at our reunions and we kept in touch via email and later, texting . . . always planning to "get together" either here (Boston area) or there (first, California, then Arizona). Depite our best intentions, our visits never happened and I am devastated. She was a bright spot in my life and will be missed. My sincere condolences to Jack and the rest of her beautiful family.

Anne you are the most wonderful friend a person could ever have . My heart is broken knowing we will never have another telephone conversation and I’ll never get to see your smiling face again . But , I also know you are in a wonderful place smiling down on us .
You were always there for me . No matter what problems I had , you supported me , had my back and somehow would make me smile .
I will never forget our road rage drama when a very irate man came charging our stopped car . We were terrified , almost in tears , when Gretel , my Great Dane , rose up and stopped him in his tracks . So what do you do ? You roll down your window and yell “ Come on , you want a piece of me “. I was crying and laughing at the same time . Only you would do something like that .
You and your family gave the Whitman’s some of our most cherished memories . Jack is your perfect match , his sense of humor and warm , kind personality are perfect . Meredith and Ryan’s friendship with Amber and Adam were something we still treasure and reminisce about often .
Everyday I will think of you , smile and have a warm feeling . God blessed me putting you and yours in my life and I am forever grateful . Thank you for all you gave us ; Jennifer , Larry , Amber and Adam Whitman

Anne was dearly loved by her brother Tommy who died a month before her. Tommy and I married sisters. He always talked about Anne and Jack and their children. He was very proud of her and her family.
With our condolences,

Jack & Family,
We are so sorry for your loss. Anne was one in a million. We will miss her so much! Her energy and fun loving ways were unique. Our son, Chris, who lives in San Diego (SAN) has many fond memories of her and Jack. They were always welcoming of him and treated him like family. It was the airline way, we knew each other from Hawaii and always had a special bond. We can’t even begin to tell you all of our fun memories over the years.
We’re sorry we didn’t get to see her in Arizona, it was in our list but we never made it there.
We’re sorry to say we won’t be able to make the services in RI, unfortunately, we have a conflict on that same date.
Please know we will be thinking of all of you and that we are sad we never got to meet you all. We feel like we know each of you based on our conversations and she LOVED being a NANA and adored all of her family and grandchildren SO much. You were her world 💖
We enjoyed talking about life (we were going to change our crazy world together) and sharing family pictures. Anne will forever be in our hearts.
God Bless you all,
Paula, Chris, Chris Rocco, Renee Franchi

Dear Jack,
I was deeply saddened to hear about the passing of your beloved wife, Ann. Please accept my heartfelt condolences during this difficult time. Losing someone as dear as Ann after sharing 58 years of life together is an immense loss, and my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family as you navigate through this period of grief.
Ann was an extraordinary woman whose warmth, kindness, and grace touched the lives of all who had the privilege of knowing her. Her legacy of love and devotion will forever remain in the hearts of those she leaves behind. May the memories of your shared journey bring you comfort and strength in the days ahead. I must say you are one LUCKY and blessed person to have had her in your life, and she blessed you and your family in so many ways.
If there's anything we can do to support you during this time of mourning, please don't hesitate to reach out.
With deepest sympathy and warmest regards,
Al and Susette Eremita

Anne was a whirlwind of action, cooking and fun. One evening I called Anne to ask if she had a can of crème of Mushroom soup. She said NO but it’s easy to make… just add fresh mushrooms and cream… Anne I said I DON”T HAVE MUSHROOMS OR CREAM! She could cook up something I never heard of.
Another funny story Anne and I were going “down the mountain” as we called it from Mt. Woodson and she told me “We have to stop at the Ramona Water Dept. Jack will be so mad at me if they turn off the water because I didn’t pay the bill.
I will miss Anne and the great friend ship we had. Jack come see us in Dallas.
Joe & Lou Anton
