Condolences
I think so often of Anne. She and I got on well at Supply Management and we had many laughs and a few tears together. I know that the world is missing her beautiful face, laughing eyes, devotion, determination, and skill because I miss all those things and more about her. Bob, please know that Anne has not been forgot and that she is still missed by many.

Bob, so sorry to hear of Anne’s passing. Just found out today. I remember her from her time in Supply Management at the City. Prayers for the life ahead without her.
Bob, I just found out about this today. I have so many fond memories of Anne, she was a mentor and a wonderful friend. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Bob, I just learned of Anne’s passing today, as I retired last December and am out of the loop. I remember working with both you and Anne in the mid 80’s at CPS. I can scarcely believe that those good times have flown by so fast. I’m sorry to hear of her passing.
Dear Bob and Family, I’m so terribly sorry for the loss of Anne. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Hope you are doing the best you can. Anne was one of the first supervisors I worked for in CPS and she always left most of us in awe. She had it all – good looks and all the brains to go with it :) She was a fabulous lady and I’m glad to have known her. Karen Stoshnof

Dear Bob and Family. True friends don’t leave your heart. Anne was a rare type of true friend who endured the ebbs and flow of our changing lives over the past 50 odd years. Where I always thought that I was the “tough” one, she was the toughest overall. Cheers to a great spirit. I’ll love her and miss her forever…. Carol
Bob – I am so sorry to hear about Annie’s passing. I’m thinking of you & hope your memories of good times help you through this very sad time. I remember first starting at CPS in 1974 & Annie being a very warm & friendly person who introduced me to everyone & helped me learn the job & have fun doing so! Many fond memories of working with both of you for many years! Jo
Bob! Anne was a very special woman. Our thought and prayers are with you. Enjoyed all our times together especially down south. She will be missed. Love Deb and Jim

My dearest friend Anne. Forty one years ago we took an adventure of a life time. Backpacking through Europe still wet behind the ears. What. From Frankfurt to Denmark where your relatives took us to where the two seas meet, and onto Copenhagen, London, Paris and Switzerland to name a few. Then it’s off to Rome. Once in Rome we check our baggage and onto the train heading for Antrodoco, Italy. Our one saving grace was the letter I had from my grandpa written in Italian introducing us to my relatives. So up the mountain we go to our destination. Lying in a warm safe bed and full tummies we started to giggle and discuss our journey to Antrodoco. Once on the platform of the train station in Antrodoco, there was no one to be found and it was getting dark. Okay, let’s get our luggage and look for a hotel. Wait the train is gone and no luggage, and its gets better, no hotel. Now what do we do? Hey there are some kids let’s ask them about my Aunty. They don’t speak English and we don’t speak Italian. Don’t panic, we’ll give them the letter from my grandpa. LOL. They read the letter and took us straight to my Aunt’s place. She and the rest of the famiglia (family) were so happy to see us. Hugs and kisses all around then off to dinner. By then it’s like 8 PM. So we eat, drink vino, eat, drink vino, more bread, pasta, MANGIA (eat) they say, until we almost dropped. But the chicken was so so delicious. Oh no! It’s not chicken it was rabbit. The next day we find out we put our luggage into a locker for safe keeping at the train station in Rome and couldn’t retrieve it until we returned. What were we thinking? We weren’t, we knew it all. No wonders we had the giggles when we went to bed on that first night in Antrodoco.
True friends are the ones who never leave your heart, even if they leave your life for a while. Even after years apart, you pick up with them right where you left off, and even if they die they’re never dead in your heart.
I’m off to Rome, Florence, Israel and the Holy Land next month my dear friend and I will be keeping you in my thoughts, heart and prayers every step of the way.
I treasured our friendship Anne and think of this trip often. Love you.
Bert and Laura Tysowski

Bob, words cannot express the heavy heart I felt when I read this notice. So very sorry for your loss of Anne at such a time when life should be getting better.
What a beautiful person Anne was and our remembrances of her and her professional demeanour back in the old Headquarters building.
And thoughts of her as an instructor in the noon-hour ‘Step’ classes in the old dungeon gym. Rolling her eyes and having patience with those of us klutzes who couldn’t hold the rhythm.
Thoughts of her and prayers for you my friend.
Very sorry to hear of Anne’s death and your deep loss Bob. Anne was an influence in my life, a truly special person. My sincere condolences.
Bob,
No words can express the sadness of this.
Kathy & Glenn McKay
So sorry for your loss Bob. Anne was a special lady, I spent many years working with her at CPS. Our deepest condolences to you and family as you go through this most difficult time.
I remember Anne’s grace and kindness, fierce dedication to work and devotion to friends.
In an environment inhabited mostly by men in the 1980’s, Anne commanded respect and ensured the civilian women were treated the same.
Annie appreciated the goofier of us (Bev…?) and, her laughter and feigned exasperation only spurred us on.
Condolences to Bob and family,
We will remember. Patsy and Russ
Anne was one of those special people who made the Calgary Police Service shine because of the great things she did. I think of our time together many years ago in the Administration Section and the laughs and tears we shared. She was a wonderful person who will be missed by many. Bob, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this sad time. Keep all the good memories.
Bob and Family
I was saddened to hear about Anne and always remember what a positive influence she was on those who had the pleasure of meeting her. Her smile, kind disposition and positive outlook made your day. Her professionalism was unsurpassed. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
