Anna Gaudette

She is predeceased by her loving husband, Rene L. Gaudette (2006).

She is survived by her children, Fritz Heinrich Gaudette, Heidy Renee Welch and Rene Leo Gaudette.

Anni loved to sew, cook and paint. She became a seamstress at several upholstery shops in Pacific Grove and Monterey and later joined a group of fellow artists who painted and became friends.

She will always be remembered throughout the entire area for her wonderful loaves of homemade zucchini bread, which she shared with everyone she knew.

In her golden years, she would walk throughout the neighborhood near Point Pinos in the evenings with dog biscuits in her pockets for any neighborhood dogs that she would meet while meandering.

Anni was fun and had a big heart. On holidays her door was always open. Whether it was a surfer in a wet suit or a neighbor without family, she would feed them. And she never lost her adventurist side when she traveled, or was trying anything "new." Whether it was a new recipe, new clothing style to sew or just a new medium for her painting, she would enjoy exploring it and learning new techniques.

The neighborhood where she lived will be forever changed without her smiles and her warmth and her sharing. She will be missed by many.

A small graveside service will be held at 10:30am on December 4, 2023 at El Carmelo Cemetery.
