Dear Tommy and Family, I've just heard the sad news. I had hoped to see Anna in May when I come to the States. I've always enjoyed her company, and especially her humour. She has followed my mom's steps,who also passed away at the age of 101. I send you, Katherine, Brendon, Logan and Martha my deepest sympathy. We'll all miss her. Love, Barbara
