Anne Furey Obituary

Kay:

On behalf of all of your classmates of Lourdes H.S. (Class of 1958) please accept our sincere sympathy at the loss of your daughter. Your family will be in our prayers

Dear Pepper and Kay,
Dottie called me tonight to tell me of Anne Therese's death. I can't convey how sorry I am for this immense loss and change. Looking back I remember how much I learned from you both about parenting a child with a disability: your work to get the right education for Anne Therese made a huge difference in how I viewed my job.
I will always remember her as that beautiful little girl in the apartment where you lived when I first met you, a four year old with an enormous curiosity about people and the world around her. She was dancing on the sofa then; I'll bet she is doing that again, right now.

Dear Mr and Mrs Furey

Anne Therese was referred to me for assistance in a job search. I found her to be a delight to work with. At the time I began working with her I had minimal exposure to people with hearing impairment. Anne Therese taugth me a great deal for which I will always be geatfull.

I recommendeed Anne Therese for the Bookkeper position at my organization. She was a valued co-worker and a good friend.

Dear Mr and Mrs. Furey,

I am a college friend of Anne's. I found Anne to be a remarkable person...always upbeat no matter what life threw her way. She was patient, kind and intelligent. The world is a better place for having her in it.

My heart goes out to you for her loss. She was blessed to have such kind and loving people as you for parents.

Sincerely,

Wendy Johnston Biondo

Dear Kay and Pepper,

I had the pleasure of seeing Anne Therese only a few times and wish I'd had the chance to get to know her. It was very clear that she was deeply loved by you both. She couldn't have had more caring parents.

Kevin and I are so sorry for your loss.

Thinking of you,

Cheryl Zminda

Dear Kay and Pepper,
Seeing the pictures of Anne Therese and the whole family brought home how rich our lives are and how we gain and lose and grow in ways we would never expect.

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Furey,
I am so sorry for your loss. I met Anne at Shhh Club years ago. She is a nice lady. My prayers and thought are with you.

Dear Kay and Pepper,

I know the profound love and caring you had for your daughter. My sympathy in your loss.

Mr & Mrs. Furey,
I was a grammar school classmate of Anne's at St. Jerome School in the '70s. I am very sorry for your loss. I have fond memories of her and ran into her every once in a while in Rogers Park. I remember her as being one of the sweetest, gentlest girls, and she always enjoyed laughing. My prayers and thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Take care,

Dearest Furey Family- I was a classmate of Anne's at St. Jerome's those many years ago (though they seem like just yesterday)and knew her to be so smart, so observant, and so keen on all that was going on. Such a loss and so sad for your family. My prayers are with Anne and you- Michelle Malca.

Dear Kay and Pepper.
I still remember AT when you lived in that "garden" apartment. But most of all I remember her buying my beloved Cressida Toyota. Love to all of you.

Dear Kay and Pepper,
My lasting memory of AT will be her birthday party 2 yrs ago that I "crashed." How happy she was! I still have her thank you note. Blessings to all your family during this difficult time.

Dear Kay and Pepper,
The birthday celebration for AT that I stumbled into will be my memory of her. She was delighted. So grateful I could know her. Blessings to all of you during this difficult time.

Dear Kay, Pepper, Joshua and David,
I was heartbroken to hear about Anne's passing. She will always be one of my best friends from Sacred Heart and I will forever cherish our high school memories together. Love, thoughts and sympathies to all of you, Edna

Dear Kay and Pepper,
Glenn and I are heartsick over this loss. Anne Therese was much too young to die. You are in our thoughts, and a candle is burning here in her memory.
Love, the Thuresons

Dear Kay & Pepper:
Our thoughts are with you as you go through this period of mourning. The loss of a child is contrary to all expectations in life. It just should not be. Our hearts are full of sympathy for you and your family.

Dear Kay and Pepper,

My deep sympathy on the loss of your daughter, Anne Therese.
