I decided to look for Ann Marie after so many years away from the industry in which we became friends, and was saddened to learn she had passed away. What an extraordinary human being and loving soul. I met her, Basil and Marco for dinner one night and instantly fell in love with them as well. We kept in touch for a bit but then life interfered and I'm beyond saddened that we lost touch.  This was back in 1989 or so.  My deepest condolences to her entire family.  A gem among mortals. 

Our paths crossed too few times but I always new she was a good soul, an honest sincere person. Thinking back there were so many Pelham people I wish I got to know better. .....Joe Siragusa

Saddened to hear of Anne Marie's passing.  She was a sweet, caring person.
Another of our class members will be sorely missed. We love you, dear Anne
Marie.
Condolences from the Chris Paul family.

I remember Ann Marie in HS. She wore a cheerleader outfit on certain game days, and was very popular. A very gracious person.

She truly was a courageous and wonderful  woman. The PMHS ladies who were fortunate enough to be within driving distance of Greenwich and therefore able to to enjoy her mini-reunions every couple of years had such great times sharing our stories, our photos, and our memories of life in Pelham. She  always gave us her best gift -- the gift of her friendship.  Mary Campins DeLima

What a great loss,  The Pelham Memorial HS Class of 1960 has lost a great lady.  Smart, athletic, witty a wonderful professional woman, wife, mother, grandmother.  We will miss our great friend.

Dear Friend thank you for so many treasured memories Newton.the Cape weekends at Nance'sthe clams, your wonderful steaksthe laughsand the wonderful feelings of unfettered friendship. Someday I will share them with you again with the Dear Lord..and we can play softball together without pain!! Until we meet again I will miss you. Sheila . For Basil, Marco and Marcello sincerest condolences from Sergio and me.

I am spending time thinking of how strong my aunt was. She was so smart and knew how she wanted to live. She had an extraordinary way of putting you at ease and being non-judgemental.  That mixture of conviction and compassion is rare, and I just admire her so much.  I am so sorry for everyone's loss.  All my love, Brooke

What a softball player. May she rest in peace.  She was an inspiring teacher.

So sorry to hear of Mrs. Labbate's passing.  She was a kind teacher and a great counselor during my years at Holy Cross Academy.  I still remember her words of wisdom and it guided me through my young adult life.  I was so happy to see her at our reunion.  She will continue to be loved with her fellow believers in heaven .  I know I will be seeing her again, rejoicing in heaven with all our loved ones.

To the Labbate and Denisco families. Please accept my sincere condolences on the passing of Ann Marie.I had the privilege of working with her during our time at SND. She was a wonderful person. May she rest in peace.

Dear Basil, my heart broke when i heard the news of Ann Marie's passing. She was one of a kind, a special teacher and a very special friend over the years.
 Even when we had loss touch with each other, all it took was that one phone call to be right back where we had left  off. my deepest condolences to you, Marco and the extended family. May she rest in peace. Amen.

A treasured long time friend whom I will surely miss. Elaina Warren

Ann Marie was one of the most wonderful people I have ever known and one of my two favorite teachers. As my sister, Julie said, "She kept on teaching even after stopped teaching." (Julie had only known for for about two years.) Please know that she will always be in our hearts but I am terribly sorry for our loss. My deepest condolences to Basil, Marco, Marcello and the rest of her family and friends. Rest in heavenly pleace, Mrs. Labbate.

We were devastated to hear of Anne Marie's passing Our heart felt condolences are with you,  Marco and family. Your pictorial review of Anne Marie's life was beautiful. We will miss her dearly

Mary and David

No words....Robin and I will miss AM greatly.

My deepest condolences to Basil. Marco and Marcello. Know that your wife, mother and grandmother had a tremendous effect on all of the lives she touched especially at Holy Cross Academy in New York City. I compared everyone of my son's teachers to this extraordinary teacher and not one could ever measure up or come close. We traveled together to the the Holy Cross reunions several times and shared many lively conversations. I appreciated her  advice and wit. Thank you for sharing Ann Marie with us. Rest in Peace, Mrs. Labbate.

I will always remember Mrs. Labbate with great fondness. I can honestly say she was one of my all-time favorite teachers. Not only was she a wonderful History teacher, but I also enjoyed having her for homeroom, and I really loved our little after school cooking club. I will never forget her beautiful smile and how she made her students feel so at ease. Thank you Mrs. Labbate, for helping me through those awkward teenage years. May God bless and keep you forever in His care. (HCA class of '72)

Mrs. Labbate was one of the best teachers I ever had. I feel blessed to have had her teach me in Holy Cross Academy and she influenced me throughout my education. May God let her rest in peace and my thoughts and prayers are with her family. God bless you all.

Thank you Mrs. Labbate! I am so deeply grateful for the life you lived, your teachings and your leadership.  I don't know what brought you to Holy Cross Academy for Young Ladies but you have no idea how important and meaningful that would be to all of us that had the privilege to sit in your class.  At a time when the role of women in this world was changing so quickly, and there were so few role models for the future, you helped create my vision of a future as an independent, thinking, empathetic human being not only through your teachings, but most importantly because in you we saw a woman of integrity, wit, professionalism and plain old smarts all wrapped us in this very hip package!  I love you and hope we meet again.  I could not have the life I live today without you. 
To the Labbate Family, my deepest sympathies.  I know it is a time of grief but I hope in time you can heal and feel the joy of her presence among you.

When I think of Ann Marie I will think of Christmas and of the many Happy Christmases spent at Rick and Sue's.  God bless you, Ann Marie.  Heartfelt wishes for peace, comfort and healing to family and friends.
Sarah Calvelli - New York, New York

Ann Marie Labbate was one of our dearest friends.  Over a friendship of 50+ years we shared many happy times, and we supported each other during the dark days too.  Having a friend like Ann Marie is a blessing!  Our deepest sympathy to Basil, Marco, and especially to Ann Marie's adored grandson, Marcello, who brought such great joy to her life.  May the Labbate and DeNisco families find solace in knowing how loved Ann Marie is -- now and forever.  May Marco and Marcello take comfort in the knowledge that they contributed so much to Ann Marie's happiness.  She was so proud of them!  We will miss you always-- until we meet again.

Remembering a teacher who was way ahead of her time... She taught us so much more than history she taught us how to stand up for ourselves and have confidence all this by her mere presence. Mrs Labbate, you loved your girls and we loved you. May you rest in the arms of the Angels. HCA Class of '72

My love and prayers are with Basil and Marco, and Ann's beloved grandson, Marcello.  Ann Marie was a dear friend and college mate of mine.  She was the pillar of strength and is one of my life's models.  God is with you now, Ann Marie!

"My sincere thoughts and prayers....Mrs. Labbate was an inspirational teacher and I credit my love for Social Studies and teaching to her patience and sense of humor. Joann Cavaliere Clynes class of 1972

Dear Basil and family, I was so sorry to hear about Ann Marie.  I remember fondly my days with her at HCA. You are in our thoughts and prayers. 
Joanna and Pete Tonacci

My thoughts and prayers are with Labatte family. What an incredible loss...she was one of my favorite teachers at Holy Cross Academy. Linda class of 1972
