Marj I'm so saddened to hear of Anna's passing. She was a wonderful lady and dear friend to my family. I was so happy to see her a few years ago at my mother's interment. Freshly baked buns and coffee perking in a Pyrex pot are some of the memories of the farm that make me smile. I know you have a lifetime of memories that will comfort you.
I am sorry to hear of Anna's passing. I have fond memories of visiting at the farm with Anna and John and Jeanne Lynch. I also have fond memories of Anna's wonderful baking. Condolences from the Gunn family.

I too remember the Pyrex coffee pot...the homemade butter....the ''cream separator"....and the hayloft!!!.
