With deep regret, we have sad news to pass along. On May 17, our aunt, sister and daughter Anne passed away after surgery. Anne was a happy, active and very kind person, fun to be with, always ready to help and advise, or talk about dogs. She will be missed very much by her family, her many friends, and her colleagues in Chicago, Denver, and the Boulder areas.

Thanks to your History of Genealogy, I just learned of Anne's passing. I met Anne at Colorado College where, in 1981, we spent a semester in Menton, France. During spring vacation that year, we Eurorailed together to Frankfort where we stayed with her grandmother, and to Berlin, where we stayed with her Uncle Eugen and Cousin Renate. Those are the only two names I remember 33 years later. While we did our best to speak only French with one another, Anne acted as my German translator with her family. I last visited with Anne in Colorado in August of 2004. We took a walk together around downtown Denver during her work lunch break. If I remember correctly she was a research librarian at a newspaper, probably the Denver Post. She had been caring for her father, who was ill at the time. Despite that stressor, Anne was ever upbeat, energetic and warmhearted.
