You were a great spirit Anne. You were loved by many and will surely be remembered at each GL class gathering for many, many years to come. We will miss your smile and fantastic personality! Peace!

My thoughts and prayers are with Annes family at this very sad time. Anne will always be remembered as always smiling and friendly to everyone. Peace be with you.....

I believe that Anne understood so much earlier than most of us, that when she gave anything to anyone, she gave it to the entire world. And that for every path she walked, for every stone that she turned over, and for every door that she knocked on, every time that she extended her hand in friendship that she did it for everyone. And finally, I believe that she knew that whenever she felt or gave love, for any reason,that she lifted everyone higher. Her legacy is her wisdom, her love, her friendship and in the last year that she was with us, her incredible courage. And even though I will miss her for the rest of my life, I will work to honor her legacy and do my best to live my life more like she lived hers.

I remember Anne even in elementary schools as being such a nice outgoing friendly girl.. full of personality... one of the best!! Hard to believe some such as that could leave us so soon.

I had the good fortune of meeting Anne in my capacity as a Director for Sussex Rural Electric Cooperative. We visit Washington, DC each year to call on our Congressman and Senators and the previous year, Anne scheduled all of our appointments. I really enjoyed working with her , I will miss her warm smile and jovial spirit. She was a happy and wonderful lady and my warmest condolences go out to her entire family.

I remember Anne in school as this bubbly, friendly girl who had the best laugh...she was always smiling and she always made others laugh. Even at times when we weren't supposed to laugh!! I can't believe she is gone. As I dropped my son off at Governor Livingston this morning I thought about Anne and it doesn't seem like that long ago we were there. My heart goes out to Anne's family and friends. But her spirit will live on. Rest in Peace.

I think all your GL classmates will agree, you made us all happier and smile when you were with us and we loved hanging out with you, we are all sad by the news, and our best goes out to your family and friends, but as a memory we always will be happy thinking about you and know you are in a great place making everyone happy up there. God Bless, you will be missed, Mark Weingartner GL Class of 1982

I remember Anne joining the family at the Zielinski family picnics, and always being so friendly. Katherine has grown to be a lovely young girl, and looks out for her brother Christopher like a second mother. These beautiful children are her legacy, and proof of her encouragement in the development of the people they will become. We will remember Anne thru her chidren. My sympathies to her parents and family in their loss of a well loved Anne.
