Anne loved her nursing job at Glacier Ear Nose and Throat and at the Surgical Center. She would always sing to her patients! Anne was an avid sports fan. She spent hours watching her children and grandchildren participate in sports. She loved geography, history, coin collecting, singing, and was the reigning Scrabble champion. Anne loved to cook and was known as an incredible chef and hostess. She was particularly proud of her Irish heritage and brought a smile to everybody she met with her hilarious jokes and witty humor.

Ray, Terri, Denise, Suzie, Chris and Daniel –
We are so sorry to hear of Anne’s passing. We loved your mom like she was our own and have such fond memories of the times spent in Kalispell with you all. Those years were some of the best times and we are thankful for the memories. We can only imagine that heaven is a bit brighter and funnier and we know that our dad, mom and sister were so happy to see Annie! Our love and prayers to you all.
Love, Patty & Mike McCarty

With Heartfelt Sympathy to the Troupe Family,
May you rely on the God of all comfort to help you to endure the days ahead.
“God is our refuge and strength ”
(Psalms 46:1)
Valli Ostrem says
Anna was so sweet and funny at the same time! She took wonderful care of me for my many years of allergy shots at GlacierENT! A special hug to Suzanne—miss you, too!
Carla Noziska says
Gone from us that smiling face, The cheerful pleasant ways,
The heart that won so many friends in Bygone Happy days,
A life made beautiful by kindly deeds a helping hand for
others needs, To a beautiful life comes a happy end, She
died as She lived, Everyones Friend.
Roxann Weaver says
I worked with Anne at Glacier Ear, Nose & Throat for about 7 years. She always had a smile on her face and always knew how to make you laugh! Patients loved her as did the entire staff! She always was bragging about her family and was so proud of you all! She will be remembered always with fondness and will be greatly missed but I am sure there is a special place in heaven for her!
Diane Antonietti says
“It is hard to forget someone who gave you so much to remember”.
I was lucky to work along side Anne for 15 wonderful years. She was an excellent nurse who was kind and caring to everyone; her energy and humor made every day a joy to be at work. But most of all she was a true and genuine friend who was always there for me and gave me so many great memories. What fun times we had!
No one, especially me, will ever forget Anne; the world is a sadder place without her.
My heart goes out to all the family. You were such a big part of my life. Please take care.
Love, Diane
