After a three year struggle with cancer Anne died peacefully surrounded by loving family on June 18 in 91原创 Hospice. Anne was born in Montreal and grew up in the small town of New Carlisle, QC. Anne earned her RN at Montreal General Hospital, and her Bachelor's degree in Nursing at UBC. A lifelong learner, Anne went on to obtain a Masters in Adult Education at UBC. Anne settled in Vancouver where she married Teg and together they raised their three children. After Teg's passing in 1994 Anne married Bill Godden in 1999. Together they traveled the world, very often by cruise ship. Anne is predeceased by her parents (James and Grace Gillies) and her first husband (Tegwin Evans). Anne will be lovingly remembered by her three children: Mark (Lee), Jane (Gerard) and Karen. She has six grandchildren who will miss their Nana deeply: Michael, Hilary, Laura, Jack, Jason and Matthew. She will be sorely missed by her husband Bill and his children Michelle (Allan), Maureen and grandson Christopher. Anne will be remembered for her courage, kindness, and humour. She touched all who knew her with her grace and dignity in the face of adversity. A Memorial Service will be held at 1:00pm on Saturday, June 27 at Victory Memorial Park Funeral Centre, 14831 28 Ave, Surrey, B.C.
