I had the good fortune of meeting Anneshortly after moving to Dorset in 2002. She signed up to a course I was running.  From the second I met her we clickedand her beautiful, bubbly, get up and goself shone a light in my life from that day on.  We became good friends over theyears both with Anne and Richard. I have lovely memories of long afternoons with Richard and Anne,  Julian and I, putting the world to rights, laughing and downing red wine. We had a magical weekend in Bruges the four of us. Anne was a truly special person. Her love of Richard and her boys was so evident always. They were her everything. My heart is with you all now. Speaking as one who knows the devestation of losing your life partner to illness, know that her love will be with you forever and her light will always shine bright in your hearts. Spread your wings dear Anne and fly with theangels xx
