It is with heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of Anne Elizabeth Rae, at Victoria General Hospital on October 22, 2024. She was born in Winnipeg, on June 23rd of 1950. Anne is predeceased by her parents, Al and Vicky. She is lovingly remembered by her brother, Neil (Barbara); her sister Dale (Lorne); her nieces, Jackie, Michelle, Rhonda and Kalina; her nephew, Towen; and her beloved dog, Ghillie. Anne will be greatly missed by her family and friends.
In 1959, Anne moved with family to Summerland, where she met her lifelong friend, Sandi. Anne was a Border Collie enthusiast, and through the collies she met her life-long friends Gini and Peter. Anne’s family would like to thank all her friends who have helped her with her long struggle with MS. Especially Trudi and her dog Honey, who took care of Ghillie when Anne became unable to do so and now have brought Ghillie into their family permanently, it was such a comfort for Anne.
Condolences may be offered to the family below.

Until the last, Anne was determined to get strong enough to bring Ghillie back home, but her body could not contain her indomitable spirit. Wishing her joy in her journey over the bridge, and comfort to her friends and family. She is sadly missed by Ghillie, Honey, and me.
