Oh my Jeff Wren,
I’m so so sorry.
I didn’t know… I’ve been trying to find Anne for years.
She was my best friend back in the day.
I loved her to pieces!!!
I’m so so very sorry.

Mrs. Wren, you were the person who made a difference in my life.  You were kind to me and believed in me at my lowest. I appreciate you and your heart, my life is better because of you. Thank you Lord for sending us your angel , may we meet again in Paradise! Please comfort her loved ones at this time! In Jesus name.

Jess

Jeff and Anne's family,  I was so saddened to hear about Anne's death.  I remember the
great times that we shared and the laughter.  I loved her sense of humor!!  I will keep
all of you in my prayers.  She will be missed by all.



Anne and I went to high school together and I will always have good memories of her wonderful sense of humor. She was always smiling and making a joke. She was such a good person and I’m sad that the world lost her. I’m praying hard for her family and friends as they figure out how to navigate life without her. 

I just wanted everyone to know the love we had.Most people will never have it.Anne touched so many lives like no one will know.She filled my life for 32 years.and married 27 years.My life will be filled with the memories of her,but will always be so empty.Anne I love you so much.

Anna will be missed she was a wonderful person to work with.

I am so sorry for your loss.  I knew Anne from working with her as a court referral officer in our court.  She was always kind and had a huge heart for people.  She will be missed.

Anne and I worked together for many years at UAB and she will be greatly missed. Anne had a strong smile and vibrant personality and always greeted everyone warmly. My condolences to Anne’s family and friends. Joan

Anne will be remembered as a very pleasant co-worker at UAB TASC for the 20+ years of service.  Always helpful and patient.

Oh, James and I send our love and prayers to Ann's family on her death. She was always sweet and courteous to us. I know she was a fierce and loyal friend to her John Carroll ones up until the time of her passing. She will be sorely missed.

Love,
Diane & James

Nellie, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.  I am so very sorry.  I have such fond memories of Ann during our John Carroll days.  My heart goes out to you all.

Sending my prayers and sympathy to Anne’s family.   I did not know Anne well but each time I saw her she was very outgoing and kind.  I pray that God will rest her soul and grant peace to her family at this time of sadness and despair. 

Condolences  to the family during your time of sorrow.

We all loved Anne, and we will always remember her quick wit!  So very sorry to Jeff and Anne’s family.

Anne Waits-Wren was a friend like no other. She was my family.  From spending girls weekends at the cabin, any cabin, to Alabama football games and Taco Chips, she brought joy to my life like nobody else. Her sense of humor was quick and her compassion deep and healing. You may not have wanted to hear her blunt yet sincere honesty, but you knew to expect it, respect  it and accept it. She made me cry, laugh and she made me think. Anne made it crystal clear, when I first met her, that she fiercely loved her husband, Jeff Wren, her mom, Nellie Waits, her brother and sister-in-law, Chris and Sharon Waits, and nieces and nephew, Elizabeth, Emma and Joseph Waits. To you all, I extend my deepest sympathies and prayers for comfort. Anne made a life changing impact on so many peoples lives, including mine. She will be deeply missed and always unconditionally loved. 

Jeff and family, 
Our sincere sympathyies and prayers go out to you all. May you have some solaces and grace in the love of our Lord. 

Loc Martindale and family.

I waited on Anne for several years at Am1st.  It was several years before we figured out our connection.  She was a beautiful, sweet, loving woman, and one of the smartest I've ever known. I am sure she will be missed by all who knew her.
May our Merciful God receive her soul and grant her His Eternal Peace in His Paradise. May the Promises of Christ comfort all those who mourn. In the Name of Jesus, our Savior, AMEN
