Anne-Marie Chapman
Ecclesiastes 3:1-4
There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance…

What a lovely, beautiful, witty person you were.
Am truly honoured to have met you through Steve.
I know Steve was forever grateful for all the help, support and love you gave him throughout the years. Steve was often say to me how remarkable you were at remembering every single detail of events that happened many years ago which Steve had forgotten about.
Thank you Anne-Marie for helping me through the last few months with our FaceTime calls, for all the laughter and crying we shared.
Was nice to talk about Broadstairs as you were so familiar with where I live.
Will truly miss you xxx

I have very fond memories of Auntie Ann-Marie from when we were younger and she would baby sit us. Lots of fun I still remember many of the party games. Who could forget the exceptional Christmas wrapping. A fun person that many will miss I am sure.

My dear sweet friend, the words are hard to find. When you lose a friend as close as were for 40 years it’s not easy to know what to write. How can I put into words what those 40 years meant to me. We have been through so much, cried together, laughted until our tummies hurt, chatted into the wee hours and much, much more. We’ve watched our kids grow, and get married, We’ve partied, did the Conga in the street, saw a few NY in with each other, and there was always fireworks! I don’t think it’s sunk in that I won’t be chatting to you every other week, I will miss our chats so much. There is far too much I want to say, more than I could write in a book. I will miss you so very much and will treasure our friendship forever.
A- Always there for you
N- Never let you down
N- Never a dull moment
E- Enjoyed giving, especially Christmas and birthday’s
M- Merry even in your darkest moments
A- Always ready to forgive
R- Ready to go shopping day or night
I- Irresistible to love at any cost
E- Eager to have fun at any given time
Sleep tight my gorgeous friend. Until we meet again…. All my love Sweet Pea x

Still struggling to comprehend this…
Annemarie… what can I say?
There was no one quite like you… We had a special bond… one that would keep us talking until so late I literally fell asleep in front of your eyes… you’d always beat me at the race to stay awake :)
West Bay, TK Max (!), tea and shortbread, Sparkles, Josh Groban, the outside Opera, Christmas Fayres, the sales, the posh kitchenware, jewellery options, the garden centres and Christmas decorations, the goodie drawer, the cats, the business idea chats, the boy talk, cream teas, the shows, the dancing, the FaceTimes, the eyebrow painting, and of course…the laughs…
…just a few things that pop to mind.
I’m so glad we got that last time together with Rob… a bond until the end…
(I’m sorry I couldn’t play Josh, just too emotional… but I think you’d know that 🫂)
You know Stacy and I will look after Rob. Along with all the other people that love him.
I really thought you’d hang on… I guess this time it was just too much…
I’ll miss you forever.
Go get your man now…
I love you.
