I remember her at Northern Nash. She always had a smile and was a beautiful girl. She is a year older than me.
I got to know Anne back in 2013 when we were both trying to work to live our lives in a different, more fulfilling way. She brought love and joy into ever room she stepped into. She would always talk about her son and husband and loved them more than anything. She had a way of making each person she spoke to feel like they were the most important person in the room, truly valued, understood and loved. I hope to carry that with me always and bring the same joy to others that Anne always did. Im grateful we were able to catch up while she was at Duke recovering from her illness just a few months before her passing. We will sure miss you down here, peace and healing to her family. All of my love, Megan.
