Anne was a loving mother to her five children and touched the lives of many students while a special education teacher at Chugiak Elementary. Anne loved her family. Her husband and five children meant the world to her. She enjoyed hosting get-togethers and taking family and friends on vacations. She especially enjoyed her many trips to Washington, California, Hawaii, Disneyland, Disneyworld and numerous road and camping trips around Alaska and the Lower 48.
