Addie! An amazing soul and so down to earth. I met Addie in grad school. I'll remember our times as stressed grad students going through the highs and lows of becoming a teacher. We came out on top! Live in Eternal Paradise friend.

Dear family of ADDIE,
Though I only met once out at Zizi & Ric´s home ( possibly also at their wedding) I had seen her photos & heard of her over the years of knowing Zizi & caring for the animals. I met Addie with Ashley before they married and am so glad they got to share the love-filled life they had. I am glad for all of you, her loving family & friends to have been in the Presence of such a lovely Light in your lives for all the years she was with you. I am so sorry for each of you to have her gone.
May you carry her in your hearts and memories.
T, Teri Wilkinson

I was saddened at the news of Addie's passing. We started teaching at the Lyon Upper School together. I will miss their positive attitude and open-minded approach to teaching. Rest in Peace, Addie. Thinking of you and your family. Best, Jeff Banks

To Ms. Ansell Family

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I remember the first time after covid I came to the Mary Lyon to pick up my son and Ms. Ansell and Ms. Westfield was at the desk. I can still see her smiling face and beautiful curly hair. She was always positive with the students. They were talking about how teachers would get "best Teacher" gifts from the students in lower grades, so I made sure to find a "Best Teacher" item for the two of them. Teachers are a gift and Ms. Ansell was the best.
May she rest in peace.

Dearest family, I wish I could be there to hold your hands during this trying time. Addie was so special. She had a wonderful life, but much too short. Her smiling cheerful face will always be in my mind. ,
