Dear Terry and family, Our sincere and deep sorrow for your loss. Anne was a remarkable woman and a wonderful friend. We miss her. Please keep in touch and we are here for you and your family.
I am going to miss my friend Anne. The opportunity I had to spend time with Anne, Terry and the kids on Kwajalein has endeared me to them for the rest of my life. I enjoyed it when Anne would invite me over for Sunday dinner with her family. She had her opinions about life and she was not shy about expressing those feelings. Her passion sometimes drove me crazy but that's why I loved Anne. And who could not love her huge smile. I'm sure I drove her crazy...teaching Ethan how to pick his nose and asking the kids if they liked sea (see) food. I'm glad I had the opportunity to visit with Anne before she passed away. I love the Sproat family. It was wonderful seeing you all again. You will always be a part of my life. I love you all and will miss Anne.
I just wanted to say that you for the beautiful service you had for Anne. Noah you did a fantastic job on the piano!
As the Home Teacher to the Sproat family for many years in Orem, I've had many occasions to be in their home. Some joyous, some not. One thing I will remember is that I seemed to always come away with more than I left. Anne was so well versed in so many things that I always learned a lot. I knew about the family homes in California, Washington, Nevada, New Jersey and especially Kwaj. She and Terry brought these places to life. God bless you all. Anne will be sorely missed by Janice and I.
During our tender on Kwaj our close friends became as extended family members. Such was Anne and other members of the Sproat family. They touched our lives in an on going basis.
When Anne taught Sunday School, she did so by teaching historical contexts related to those lessons,which greatly enhanced our understanding of the lesson material.
When we returned to Utah following our tender on Kwaj, Anne was a valued friend in aiding us to locate essential resources for our son.
We have been very blessed in our lives to have Anne as a special friend. She will be greatly missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Terry, Sally, Jeremy, Ethan, Noah – you have a great mother. I will miss your Mom. She was a great friend and I am honored to be part of her legacy. Ann, you might be gone, but you will not be forgotten.
Good bye my friend,

From Tonga to Ebeye to Orem, our paths crossed.
Anne was obviously a beautiful wife, mother and grandmother and will be missed in this life. Our prayers are with you Terry.
What a sweet friend she has been ever since we met through La Leche League in the 1970s. Her gentle, loving nature and her intellectual curiosity, which extended in so many directions, were something to behold, and I feel very blessed to have had her as my friend! My love and sympathy to you, Terry, and to Sally, Jeremy, Emily, Ethan, and Noah. You are all in my heart and in my prayers.
Anne was the most amazing lady! She always made you feel that you mattered in the world and made you feel welcomed. She was the most amazing Gospel Doctrine teacher. She was always laughing and smiling. She taught me a lot! She had a tremendous testimony of our Savior! I will always cherish my Kwaj memories of Anne. To Terry and family I extend my deepest sympathy at this great loss, but pray for the Holy Ghost to comfort you. I know that Anne will always be watching over her family. Love always.
To all of Anne's Family,
Anne was so fun to be around. She was always smiling or laughing. She was very knowledgeable about many things which made her interesting to talk with. Life has been so hard for her since she had her stroke. Now, she is free and well and happy. I think of her being with Bert and Roberta and feeling their love. May each member of your family be comforted in a tender and personal manner.
Your friend, Ed Beatty
