  10. Ray, Rick and entire family, I am so sorry to hear of Anne’s passing. She was the sweetest lady on earth. Worked with her at Buncombe County Government. Thoughts and prayers for you all.

  11. Jody, Steve and Tina, my thoughts and prayers are with you and all your family. I really enjoyed talking with Anne when she worked at the Register of Deeds. We would talk about volleyball and softball at TCR and she would often call me ‘Christy’ by mistake. I would always tease her and tell her she reminded me of my parents because they could never get our names straight. Later in time, she was such a godsend and helped us girls when our Mom passed away. She offered words of comfort and was there with a hug for all of us. She was just as strong five weeks later when our Dad passed. Your Mom was a special lady and will truly be missed.

  12. My thoughts and prayers are with your family! I work with Lauren and know this has been a difficult last few months for you! Praying for comfort for you in the days ahead! So sorry for your loss!

  13. Dearest Tina,
    Our depeest sympathy to you and all the family. Thinking of her children, especially Tina, (Duane,) and her grandchildren Lauren and Heather. She will be missed by all.
    Deepest symapthy,
    Gene and Lisa

  14. I am a therapist at the Oaks at Sweeten Creek and I had the opportunity to spend a lot of time with her. She was such a sweet woman and we had a great time together where she shared some amazing stories with me. I am so sorry for your loss but I know how much she was loved and that is a great legacy. Sending warm thoughts and love to her family.

  15. Anne, was always so nice to me and my family, I will miss talking with her on occasion. I just heard of her passing yesterday August 5, 2019.
