Sincerest condolences. Don't know why I didn't leave a note here in 2009. It's been so long. How did we get so far apart? Perhaps some day Chris and Tim and I will see our cousins again. I'd really like that.

I am saddened by the loss of such a wonderful aunt. I have many fond memories of her when I was young at Grandma Brady's house. Ann was always beautiful, friendly and poised. I am happy that I got to see her when I was home briefly in the fall. Ron, Melanie and John Paul, please accept my condolences.

Hi Ron. I'm so very sorry to learn of the loss of Anne. It is so hard to say good-bye. It takes such a long time to begin to live again. Almost 4 years since I lost Rog and still not a day goes by that he still should be here. He is in spirt and I still miss him so much. My family has been such a wonderful support as I'm sure yours have too. Take each day one at a time. It does get a little easier, evetually. Thinking of you and your family at this very sad time. Love, Joelene

I'm very sorry to hear about Anne's passing. Anne was a fellow classmate at O'brien High School and I enjoyed having known her. She was always fun loving and we laughed alot through our years in high school. Whe always had a smile. I have passed along the information to Hackett and believe she will be remembered in the Shamrock newsletter. Please extend my heart felt condolences to family members. It is always sad to see someone pass away at such an early age. Sincerely Amy Remmert - Monsignor O'Brien High School Class of 67

I am very sadden by the news of your loss. I have such fond, wonderful and fun memories of Anne. She and I were friends at St. Joe's from 5th grade, through high school and beyond. I remember when she met Ron....she knew he would be in her life forever. Anne was one of the few people that come into one's life and made a difference. Her memory and spirt will go on forever in the lives of those who had the fortune and pleasure of being part of hers.

To the Family of Ann Verhage: I am so very sorry for the loss of your wife, mother and grandmother. I attended Monsignor O'Brien High School with Ann and she was a wonderful and caring person. She had such a huge smile and was so kind to everyone. I remember many days, just hanging out at her family home on Portage Road - we had great times. I wish you peace in your memories of such a dear lady. Take care of one another. Sue Derhammer Kovach Class of 1967 O'Brien High School

I was very hurt to learn of Anne's passing. Her strength to overcome some of the worst circumstances with health made me smile. Even when she was not her best, she was still very calm and collected. She was blessed with an amazing husband who took his vows seriously - sickness and health. It was wonderful to see the 2 of them interact! I appreciated working with your family and I will keep you in my prayers. Jynell
