    Personally, I didn’t know Anne. However, being best friends with her son Fergus and knowing the man he’s grown up to be – I am honored to call him a best friend.

    Mick and Fergus, I am sorry for your loss. From the words I’ve read, Anne was loved and respected by many, which is beautiful to read.

    Thinking of all the Hughes family at this time.

    Very fond memories of my time working with Anne at the telephone exchange on the switchboards. We were the ‘Young ones’
    I remember the Operator Christmas fancy dress lunchtime parties, doing the Conga up the back stairs and through the offices at Watson House!!
    Elegant lady, great fashion sense and always looked immaculate.
    Our paths still crossed over the years, it was always lovely to see her and catch up.

    Writing this has been so difficult, it is something that we alway’s hoped we would never have to do.
    To Mick, Fergus and family we send so much love, we know that there are no words that can ease your sorrow, we just hope that all the wonderful tributes, written by so many people about Anne, will give you comfort in some small way, Anne was loved & cherished by so many, she really did touch, enrich and ‘light up’ so many peoples lives by just simply being Anne.
    For us, our adventures together were always filled with fun, love & laughter and we thank you Anne for all these special memories, we will hold you in our hearts forever and take you with us wherever we go. We will talk about you often and we know we will cry many more tears, as losing you hurts so much but we will also sing, dance, laugh and ‘celebrate everything Anne’, just as you would have wanted.
    We feel so privileged and grateful to have been part of your life for so many years. Anne you really are our completely irreplaceable, funny, talented, creative, unique, laid back (& often late !!), fun loving, glamorous, music mad, dancing sensation, who was beautiful inside and out, the list is endless but most of all you are our ‘fabulous’ true friend. We love you Anne and always will ❤️ xxxxxxx

    Met Anne for the first time at our ‘sim get-together’. She was such a good soul and I was looking forward to meeting again.
    I look forward to our next ‘get-together’ on the other side – no doubt she’ll be sorting the beers and the music out !

    Mick and Fergus, so sorry for your loss and sending my deepest condolences. For me primarily I remember Anne as being Fergus’ mum after school or going over to play as a kid but I’ll always remember how much of a kind, generous and caring person she always was whenever I met her and how much that shone through. She’ll be sorely missed but always much loved x

    I’m going to miss our “work supervision”, which mostly involved coffee, biscuits and talking about Swindon town players of the past and present.
    Anne was however always at the end of a text or phonecall, with a pearl of O/ T wisdom, whenever I needed advice.
    Sorry for your loss.
    Best wishes Mike
