Dear Pat & Benton and family,
I am so very sorry for your loss. I adored "Sack-it" and know how much she mean to Mom. I remember Anne coming to the hospital when Mom was having health issues and sitting with us while we waited for the doctor. Anne absolutely lit up the room with laughter! She was such a positive force in this world.

You are all in my prayers and on my heart.
God bless you all.
