She was well loved and will be missed.
Many of us at Hope loved and appreciate Anne’s faithful work. I know you will miss her greatly. I’m so sorry that I hadn’t heard of Guido’s passing.He was (is) such a nice man. We know they are together now, free of pain and every obstacle that hinders. And we know that love never ends…not with distance, not with time, not with death. May God comfort you with His strong comfort and hold each of you close during this difficult time!
I had the privilege of working with Anne for 10 years as pastor to Hope Presbyterian Church. We shared so many wonderful memories together. She knew me pretty well and was gracious in the way she helped me in ministry. We had many conversations about the Gospel and our love for Jesus. I know her faith has sustained her as well as giving her strength and peace in her preparation for Heaven. She will be greatly missed, but she will be waiting for us when we are Heaven bond.
So sorry to hear of Anne’s passing. She was loved by many and will be sorely missed. I will pray for her and the family.
I worked at Hope Presbyterian Church as custodian and was also an elder there as well during We Anne’s employment there. We shared many tears and laughs together. Anne helped me in so many ways. After I left the custodian job I worked at Autoway Dodge as a parts truck driver. Guido helped me get that job. Anne and Guido were good people and I am glad thet are together now.
As a distant Graham relative, I was only able to meet Anne once but retained a lasting impression of grace and strength. So glad she and Guido are with each other again.
