So sorry to hear of Anna,s passing. Condolences to all the Van Daatselaar family. We had nine years sharemilking for Gerrie and Anna a great stepping stone to farm ownership. So lovely to be able to catch up with Anna at the Rongotea Community Centre recently. She was bright and cheerful, and always easy to talk to. Anna will be greatly missed .

To Catharine and Family
Sending sympathy to you all on the passing of your beloved mother. My Auntie Prue Amey/ Riddle who died this year spoke very fondly of Anna and even in her last years she would say "I wonder how my dear friend Anna Van Daateslaar is getting along" and now they are together in heaven.
Prue would also say `Well done good and faithful servant"
May many cherished and fond memories comfort you all
