Anne will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
Her memory will live on in the hearts of those whose lives she touched.
Many great memories with Anne. Such a huge void in my life as I learned of her passing. Much love to all her family. She will be missed! RIP Miss Webster!
Many fun memories of our time together as cheerleaders. I also remember who artistic she was . Prayer to the whole family
You will be missed. I pray for comfort and peace for all her family and friends.
I am absolutely heartbroken. She was my partner in crime, the one who never asked ‘Should we….’? (And if we ever got caught, the one who could talk us out of it)!
My crazy puzzle piece, party crashing, always able to make me smile (or spit wine coolers out of my nose) friend.
She will be missed more than she knows!
Words can’t explain the loss this world has lost. To know those that knew her heart, knew what she could offer. She was a dear friend and loving person. She will be missed by all that she touched.
I am lost for words. Dear Brian and Family, please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. All I can do right now is to let my tears flow freely. Sending hugs, XOXO. RIP Anne; greet your sweet mother, Betsy and your Grammie Libby for us.
Glamorous and funny. Please accept my condolences
May her memory be a blessing. I have very fond memories of Anne – she had a wicked sense of humor and a big heart.
I’m so sad for this loss. Peace to you Anne as you start your new journey.
I remember the first time I laid eyes on 7th grade Anne under the Friday night lights at Moss Field in WG.
I was shyly and (I thought) slyly taking notice. Having noticed me staring, Anne marched over and asked if I wanted to say hello.
This began a great friendship that lasted many years. I learned a lot about not giving a f*#* from Anne.
She was beautiful, smart, funny, and way more mature and self-assured than the rest of us middle schoolers. Many of us never caught up.
This news really makes me sad.
My condolences to Anne’s sons, family and friends. Anne, you will be missed by many. We weren’t close in high school but I enjoyed our times we “bumped” into each other in and around Kirkwood through the years. Until we meet again.
WG classmate….You will be missed! My condolences to your husband, kids, and the rest of the family. I pray God gives you strength to endure!
No words! So sorry! I remember how incredible she was as an artist! Always enjoyed her creativity and am thinking of her family sending lots of love!
Gone too soon and so young. I enjoyed catching up with her when she came to water aerobics or when she was at Betsy’s. She was a lovely person.
