~ Anna was the greatest. ~

~ I send my heart-felt condolences to the family. Although I have never had the pleasure of meeting Anna Quillan, the shared love of Jane Austen shows me that she is an exceptional person. ~

~ I was so sorry to hear of this sad news. I do remember Ana languishing on our sofa here at home as Lady Bertram when we had a dress as your favorite character. ~

~ Oh, such sad news. I will miss her sense of humor so very much... Such a loss to our group.
Our thoughts are with her family who must miss her a great deal. She was always such a delight to me.
I remember one of our conversations went something like this: 
Robin:  "So Anna, I heard you attended the AGM up in Vancouver... "
Anna:  "I did. I couldn't tell you a thing about it, but I know I went."
(You see, she knew her memory was slipping, and she just went along with how things 
were going to be as she got older. She seemed a little amused by it all!) ~

Anna was one of the first people I met when I joined the JASNA Oregon and SW Washington. She was always a delight and her love of our favorite author was boundless. I will miss her very much.
