We are very sorry to hear the sad news that our lovely friend Annie passed away. Many years ago I had the privilege of doing some work with Annie in London around the provision of counselling support for visually impaired people. Annie was such a joy to work with, compassionate, kind, caring. and professional When we both moved away from London we kept in touch with each other. Our sincere condolences to Emily and family.
Annie, it was such a pleasure knowing you even though it was only for a short time. Thank you for welcoming me so warmly ❤️
I’m so sorry to hear of Annie’s passing, she will be sadly missed. I’m grateful for all the years Annie shared with my Dad, as they were very happy together and it was a pleasure for me to have known her.
It was a great pleasure to have known Annie through Peter with whom I worked at the Wellcome Trust for many years. They have been wonderful friends and just so sorry to hear of her passing so shortly after Peter. They arre once again, reunited. My sincere condolences to Emily and family.
I knew Annie for about 5 years and she was a joy. Always kind, calm, sensible, funny, and resilient, she loved her life with Peter and they lived life to the full. She also had many many friends in the village and was a big part of life in the local community. Her passing will be a huge loss but I am comforted that she is reunited with her beloved Peter. My very sincere condolences to Emily and family.
Thank you Annie for taking me under your wing. I like to imagine you in a garden with Peter, your cats and the birds and butterflies.
Annie we’ve had many happy memories together. You will be sadly missed. B&S
Lovely Auntie Annie, always positive, great fun, warm, wonderfully irreverent and with such an infectious laugh. I smile still at the memories of Colligan family get togethers and holidays together with you and Emily. My deepest sympathy to Em, John and all who now have an Annie-sized hole in our lives.
