Anna Marie (Irvine) Leonard

I was very sorry to hear of Ann’s passing. She was definitely a special woman with her ability to make everyone feel as though she truly cared about you. Her way of making any conversation go from sad or boring to laughter and joy was amazing. Although I barely knew her I quickly felt that I have now lost a dear friend. She was so much help to my sister, Diane Smith and my sister-in-law Jean Holck and my brother Lee that I feel we sadly lost an Angel on earth. My heart goes out to her family.

I lost my mother when I was 16 years old which left a huge hole in my heart. The minute that I met Anna I fell in love!! She helped fill that void in my life. Her daughter Jaci allowed me to share her with me which I am so very grateful

I lost my mother when I was 16 years old. A horrific loss! I met Anne much later in life and fell in love with her immediately! She filled a huge gap in my heart and I am so very lucky and blessed that I had her in my life.

Anna Marie was a special person. I always enjoyed talking to her. She was funny and caring at the same time. I was lucky to have known her. My thoughts are with you all. Karen Aney (Tom's wife)

To Anna's family - I just recently met Anna and fell in love with her! She was a dear friend of my Aunt JoAn Skyrme. The day we met, she opened up her heart and her home to me. Spending time with her felt comfortable, like we had known each other for years! Even though I haven't known her for long, she deeply touched my heart! I am so very sorry for your loss! I would really like to be informed about her services in June, if possible. Thank you. My heart and my prayers are with you all. God bless.
