Anne Berendsen

She was born on December 24th, 1932 in Holland. She arrived in Canada in 1957 at the age of 24 on the arm of her beloved husband to be, Anthony. They soon made a life together (50 years to be exact) living in Sarnia, then for a short time on a farm in Mitchell and finally settling in London. She was a homemaker who raised four wonderful children. She will always be remembered for her special applesauce, jams and other preserves. She enjoyed long daily walks and attending mass. Together with Dad they will be watching over us from Heaven.

Anne was survived by children John (Janet), George (Sally), Dorothy (Rob) and Mary-Anne (Steve); grandchildren Sandra (Lane), Adam, Branden, Brittaney, Amanda (Joe), Ryan, Michael and Nicole; great grandchildren Brailey and Kipton; and siblings Elly, Riet, Jan and George.

Predeceased by the love of her life, Anthony and brother Theo.

Her presence and endless love will be missed tremendously by all who knew her.

A special thank you to Henley Place for the exceptional love and care they provided for Anne over the past 5 years.
