I was sorry to learn of Annie’s passing from this world. There was a special friendship between Annie and my late wife, Janet, or Jinty as she was known to Annie. I heard all the details of their friendship and early nursing adventures, including the time in the 1950’s when they were studying midwifery at Hammersmith Hospital. Jinty and I moved to Canada in 1966, and ever since then, Annie and Jinty kept in touch by telephone and by mail. Many stories and memories were shared between them, and a lot of fun was the result. Annie and Jim came to see us back in July 2007 when they were on a trip to Toronto. I, along with my daughters Fiona, Annalie and Vanessa, send our love and sympathy to Annie’s family. To say she will be sorely missed is an understatement.
