Anne found great fulfillment in being a loving wife and mother. She shared a love of traveling with her family and treasured spontaneous trips with her husband David. Her home reflected how she lived her life, filled with fresh flowers, happy dogs, and loving kids. She was best known for her supportive nature. Always occupying a spot on the sidelines at all of her boys' games, no matter how far away. She wore her Wando, Davidson, or Vikings pullovers with pride. She was often referred to as "Mama Anne" by her rugby girls and was known to give the best hugs and encouragement.
