My sincerest condolences. Your mother was very special. My grandfather Hartigan raved about the service she provided to seniors.
I remember seeing Tom driving in North Haven and Annamay sitting in the passenger seat. I remember Ed telling me how he would go to see her on his way to work every morning. I also remember seeing her standing with her daughter Mary waiting to go into the auditorium at Lyman Hall to see a concert. She was such a tiny woman, but she raised up a good family. May you all be comforted in your loss of your loved one.
Ed, Tom, Please accept my most sincerest condolences, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this most difficult time.
Dear Tom and MaryAnn, please accept my deepest sympathy over the loss of your Mom, one of the nicest people I’ve ever met in my life. Also please extend my condolences to David, Cheryl, and Tom’s family. I am thinking about you and wish I were there.

I am so sorry for your loss. I made it a point to see her last Thanksgiving when I was in Connecticut and I am so glad I did. When I visit this year, her absence will be felt but I will always remember her warm smile and her kind heart.

My sincere condolences. I have many fond memories visiting with the Doodys and the rest of the Dorothy and Walter Curriier daughters and their families so many years ago.
Anna May will be truly be missed by the two of us. We first met cheering on the North Branford Hockey team and I shared some happy times as she worked helping all of us at Jerome. She was a ray of sunshine who was happy to share her talents with all of us. ❤️
I would like to extend my sincere condolences to Annamay’s entire family. I met Annamay when she became a volunteer at Jerome Harrison School where I was the secretary. Annamay was one of the sweetest, generous and most gracious women I have ever known. She was always eager to lend a helping hand no matter what the task was. I enjoyed listening to her many life stories. She reminded me so much of my mom and we bonded right from the start. She had a heart of gold and that is what I will remember her most for. She also made the best pies ever! My thoughts and prayers will be with all of you at this difficult time. Annamay will be missed by many, but she will also always be in the hearts of many forever.
With deepest sympathy for your loss…
