I would like to remember Anna as being a friend not just someone I used to do cleaning for. I miss going along to her house on a Thursday morning, when we would often be joined by her long term friend Carol and have many a laugh over a cup of coffee...sleep peacefully Anna X ❤️

When I think of Great Aunty Anna, i picture her at the cottage with her wonderfully cheery smile. She had a caring and gentle nature and always made me feel very welcome on our trips to Northumberland. Rest in peace Anna, lots of love Nina xxx

Dear Janet and Michael and family,

We were so sorry to hear of Anna's passing, she is remembered fondly in Shropshire and was always very kind to me as a child.

Our thoughts are with you,

Aunty Anna was the youngest of my Dads (Norma Temple) three sisters.
I am so lucky to have many happy memories of when we travelled up for our
Holidays over the years and continued until recently
She was always cheerful welcoming and loved life, showing us the places she loved
and knew so much about around Rothbury
and later Powburn with Uncle Bill, Michael and Janet.
Wonderful family picnics by many a riverside or beach or roaming around the hillside
gave me a love of Northumberland
Aunty Anna was kind and caring always interested in listening to people. She cared for Grandma Temple in her later years
Always devoted to Uncle Bill and had such a strength of character which kept her going in difficult times.
Aunty Anna was the last of my Dads family, I’m so grateful to have known such a lovely Aunty
I will miss our ‘see you on the phone ‘ chats
The memories will always be there
God Bless
Rest in Peace
Norma ,Jim,Nina and family
