Dear Philip, I am writing to offer my sincere condolences to you and your family at this difficult time. I know how much you loved Anne through the stories you would tell when we worked together at the PSC.

So sorry for this loss for you all. Annemieke was a remarkable person. Her gentle and generous spirit touched my life immensely. May you, who knew her best, find comfort and courage as you remember the beautiful life that she shared with you.
Love,

Anne will always be remembered for her kind, sweet, gracious spirit. She was always eager for doing all of life and had a witty way of seeing the world and life. She was so appreciative and committed to making the best of every situation. I am so glad for the visits we had with her and her travels here to be with us. She will live on in our memories with joy. I am so sorry for that you had to say good bye so soon.

Anne and I met in Waterloo as we both had children the same age. Every week we would spend one day together using the time we weren't occupied with our little ones to chat about anything and everything. I remember one day she was telling me about being at the hospital with her precious newborn son. She was so full of love for him that she began singing a lullaby of her own invention. A nurse burst into the room, full of concern, because she had heard terrible wailing. Anne's way of telling the story had me laughing so hard my stomach hurt. She was creative, insightful and a true friend. My Waterloo days were challenging as my oldest son had health problems and my family was far away. Having Anne to brighten my weeks was a blessing. I will always treasure my memories of her.

Dear Philip, Hendrik, Corrie, Jim and family,
I'm so very sorry to hear of Annemieke's passing. I have fond memories of meeting her at Corrie's home in Toronto and visiting her and Philip in Waterloo when the boys were little. She was such a warm, kind and positive person and I know she will be deeply missed. Sending you my love at this difficult time.

Je n'ai malheureusement pas eu le bonheur de vraiment connaître Anne, ne l'ayant rencontrée qu'il y a quelques mois. Mais j'ai tout de suite été conquis par son beau regard, son sourire et sa grande générosité. Mon amie Renée, qui était sa voisine, la considérait comme une grande amie qui la comprenait et sur qui elle pouvait compter. Renée ne pouvant exprimer sa peine, je vous transmets à vous Phil et famille nos plus sincères condoléances.

Je sais à quel point vous aimiez Anne, une tendre épouse et maman aimante. Phil me parlait souvent de la passion d'Anne pour la culture et de la fierté qu'elle ressentait pour les réussites de ses deux fils, des sentiments qu'elle a su partager et qui resteront avec nous pour toujours.

Thank you Aunt Anne, for your kindness and hospitality. The Invitation to stay with you in France was life-changing for me. I developed a deep love of travel, the courage to try using another language, and an appreciation for another culture. Your family will always hold a special place in my heart!

I am so sorry for your loss, for the missing presence of Auntie Anne. She was a family pillar, wonderful person, and beautiful soul.
I will always remember the welcome, conversation and hospitality you both shared with me when I visited Ottawa. They are memories that I will always treasure.
Please know that she will always be in my heart and I hope that you find strength and courage for each day ahead .
