What follows are several tributes to Anne from people who could not make the day. One was delivered 'live', by Brian Snellgrove [see at the end].
We are so happy to have had the privilege of knowing Anne and to have had the benefit of sharing in her enormous gifts to humanity. She will be sorely missed.
Love and light, Chris Gibbs and Jenny
Anne will be in my thoughts on Sunday and I will light a candle for her. In fact Anne has been very much in my thoughts, ever since I knew she was ill. When I heard she had died I put the Diana symbol on a long silver chain and often wear this when I am at home. It has a very calming and comforting feeling. I put it under my pillow at night. Last Monday night it disappeared. I looked all over the place for it. It should have been under my pillow. I could only conclude that it had de-materialised. Then on Wednesday morning, as I was waking up and pushing my arm up under the pillow, there it was!
Another morning last week, when I was more asleep than awake I clearly heard a woman’s voice say “Morning” in a very friendly and rather amused voice. It made me jump and immediately awake and firmly believe there was a lady in my room. I think it was probably Anne, and especially so if this has happened to other people who felt close to her.
It is amazing that the only time I met Anne in this life was at our Essene Gathering last year and yet there was an immediate connection between us, which we both felt and I told Anne I was ‘seeing’ turquoise and she told me that this is Diana’s colour. After yours and Anne’s talk and the healing on the Wednesday morning we were invited to go into the grounds to meditate. I wondered around for ages trying to decide where to sit and then I saw a black feather and I knew this was the right place. I kept the black feather and felt it was odd somehow and showed it to Anne and she told me that this again was relating to Diana because of the black swans which were put onto the lake which surrounds the island where Diana’s body was buried. Maybe this could be my short tribute to Anne.
I feel that I know Anne’s soul from an Egyptian life, parts of which I started to remember when I was in my 30s, other parts through a past life regression, and then so much more when I was meditating three years ago.
Light and Love to you Jack and all the family, Marcia Goffin
'Dear Anne,
Annie and I are so with you today as the lovely gathering is here to celebrate your wondrous life on this plane. We are grateful that Annie had the chance to experience your presence and I remember her coming back to me and staying what a beautiful experience it was and how graceful you were despite, by then, feeling the effects of your physical challenges.
My memories of you are twofold. Firstly of your Light and loving presence at the workshops I experienced with you and Jack both at Penny's place in Ireland and over here in Brighton and other places. It was always such fun with you both - the way all of life was supposed to be eh?
Secondly the day you thought it fun to fall backwards with me down an up travelling elevator on the London Underground was hilarious! How it happened we will never know but all was well thanks to those two burly young men who came to our rescue. Despite the torn trousers and bruises I remember the laughter the three of us had. That to me said everything about you. Great FUN. Enjoy the next part of your journey sweet Angel and your fun with Diana!

Hello Jack, thank you for your communication, and invitation to Anne's Celebration. I will not be able to attend, I am sorry, but the following day I am due to hold a ceremony at Asha as it will be World Peace Day. I will link in though from home, I suspect that Anne has popped in on more than one occasion, I have felt her very close from time to time. Are you going to film the tributes etc? It would be lovely for those of us who couldn't get along. If I were there, I would say that in spite of our links, Anne and I, being of a short duration, I am tremendously honoured to have "stuck up" for her on Radio Gloucestershire, which was a means of us meeting. So, short that the physical link was, that was meant, I'm sure so we could continue in some way, together to further the awareness of Peace and Love, bringing into the perception of the World's people, the Christ energy. Perhaps, at some future date, you would consider again, using Asha as a base for some teaching and healing. I would be honoured to assist. So glad that you are steadier now, you are a strong chap, owing to your unquenchable faith. I send you my love and blessings.
Margaret Coles.
"Through meeting Jack, I discovered Anne to be generous, creative, a tough yet fair and widely experienced business woman, and mostly; the perfect balance for Jack and his considerable gifts. Together they made a formidable partnership. A fighter, she has been taken early and will be sorely missed by all those close to her. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. God bless"
With you in spirit in Spain. Kind regards, David Miskimin
Our thoughts are with you at this sad time. Anne helped and inspired many people, she was one of the special ones.
She helped a few members of my family as you know and I will always be grateful for that. They all send love and gratitude.
Love to you and the family.
I had great love and admiration for Anne, together with everyone else who knew her, as she had that effect on people.
I know the love that you have for Anne and I cannot think of any words which would in any way be adequate as a comment on this. I very much hope that tomorrow "works" for you. Cleary Anne will be there with you. I very much hope that you are coping with your devastating loss as best you can. If it feels right tomorrow, you may wish to use my favourite phrase, which I believe applies to Anne in particular "we are spirits having a human experience".
Irene & Kevin Morrison
My memories of Anne are fond and kind. She had a way of making you feel totally at ease and there was always such a genuine and heartfelt quality to how she interacted. I did not spend a huge amount of time in her presence but I can honestly say that I would have told her anything and been OK with doing so - she generated trust. As a somewhat natural cynic and introvert myself that takes some doing. I can smile easily when I think of her and I can also shed a tear at the passing of a genuinely good woman. Rest well Anne, return to source and know that you are loved.
Paul Kerr
Dear Jack,
Thank you so much for this opportunity to ‘say something’ as I too don’t think I’ll be able to make it on Sunday. I was so looking forward to being there too, to support you and the family.
I am glad that you are thinking of filming some of the day as I am particularly interested to hear what has been happening since Anne’s passing – the Jonathan Brown channelling in particular – and how you will be working together in the future.
I am still quite shocked at the news and still can’t see ‘what its all about’ when things seemed to be going to plan – teaching the Healing Code, the Diana connection, the move to Malvern and a planned Healing Centre in your new area. I am sure Anne will be working with you very closely in these areas, and I too will be keeping in touch to find out how things are progressing.
Good Luck, Jack, you are NOT alone and there are many people thinking of you both.
Diana Burton (and the Reiki group) in Devon
A few words about Anne
I am deeply sorry that I cannot be there in person to share these words which I would have so loved to have done, however as Jack is aware very difficult family circumstances prevent me. However, though the magic of technology, and hopefully Jacks voice box, I am pleased and honoured to still be able to share a few of my thoughts about this beautiful soul we were all blessed to know in this lifetime as Anne Stewart.
When I first heard that Anne had gone back to spirit I was like everyone, shocked and deeply saddened and although since their moving to Malvern I had not seen either Anne or Jack in person for some time, it still felt like a close friend was no longer around, such was the impact that this wonderful lady had on me and a I’m sure a great many others.
It’s hard to recall exactly when I first met Anne, because once meeting her and feeling that deep compassion and love combined with her sense of humour and humbleness time seems to blur and become irrelevant, but it must have been somewhere around 2002 and our connection was strong despite the gaps in between. You know, when there is someone in your life and the instant you see them again the connection is there in a moment, regardless of when you last saw them, the knowing is always there and such was my friendship with Anne (and Jack too of course, but this is about Anne and I wouldn’t like to embarrass him anyway J)
When someone touches you with such an energy quality as Anne did, the spirit within feels something profound, it gets a most beautiful nudge, one that wakes it up from its slumber and it starts to recognises itself and then it recognises the spirit in others, what an amazingly beautiful thing to bring to this world. We all will have experienced this in our own special ways through our connections with Anne and I personally consider it up there amongst the most beautiful experiences I have ever had.
With such immense love and compassion and grace coming from such a humble and down to earth lady, it is easy for me to sense why Anne would have developed such a strong non physical energetic bond with healing and with Lady Dianna Spencer’s’ spirit in particular, because in my experience the quality of energy they both share is almost identical.
I would also like to speak a little about the underlying purpose and nature of Anne’s work. It was, and I am sure still is, service to others. Her gifts were used not for personal gain or notoriety but for helping as many other people as she could, and of course doing this tirelessly with her life companion and soul mate Jack. This is a true sign of a wise soul, one which knows of the greater workings of this illusion we call life and ones which knows we are all ultimately connected as one. No greater path can we take in this lifetime than the one that Anne chose and a great many peoples lives, myself most certainly included, have benefitted from this selfless loving choice.
If I were with you all today I intended to ask you to indulge me momentarily, so please if you would, close your eyes briefly and to bring to mind via images, thoughts and memories, that wondrous beautiful energy we all instantly recognise as Anne and as you feel that familiar energy know with all of your being that she is not actually gone, she is still very much around you and will always be with you, such is the love and grace of her spirit.
I feel it touch me as I write these words and I feel deeply blessed to have had the pleasure of knowing, spending time with and calling that beautiful soul Anne Stewart a dear friend.
My life is forever richer for her having touched it. Bless you Anne and may your loving presence continue to grace us and help all those in need from your elevated perspective.
Oh and by the way say hi to Diana for me J
Love, blessings and a huge big thankyou from my heart to yours. Mark W Foster, friend and Head of Personal & Spiritual Development Gorton Monastery Manchester.
Beloved Anne...
I Thank you for seeing me, for who I truly am, for your trust and being there for me in your own gentle way in my "re-awakening and empowerment of the divine feminine... I Thank you for the beauty you contributed to Inner Flow & to all the souls you held with your touch through your presence & your wisdom with such an open heart, full of so much love..
My dearest Essenian soul sister....I am honoured to have walked once again beside you on Gaia...there are no goodbyes , only celebrations of the Spirit...
With deep gratitude and love always...
Effie Adamidou- Inner Flow, Athens Greece
Anne was a lovely lady who was outstanding in her dedication to helping others. It was no surprise that Diana chose Anne to channel her book. We went to Kensington Palace after Diana died, it was so very special, with so many people sitting in reflection.
Like Diana, Anne had a spiritual purpose, and we cannot know the scope of our purpose. I am sure you and the family are comforted by the affection to which Anne and yourself are held by your friends. My thoughts are with you at this time.
Love, Judy Westcott.
I remember exactly where I was when I heard of the death of Kennedy and I remember how I reacted - with numbness and shock and disorientation and 'what has the world come to'. However, when I received a note from Jack about the passing of Anne my heart did not skip a beat. The nearest feeling I had was when I heard that my son had gained his degree at University.
I have been closely involved on a daily basis for the six months prior to that event and I did find myself wondering why I was putting so much energy into it when no one had actually asked me to. Was I intruding too much? Was I being too analytical? Was like giving Jack a hard time when I didn't understand the perspectives that I was receiving.
It is only in hindsight that I can understand this. I was working not only for Anne herself, not only for Jack, but for the many thousands of souls who will no doubt benefit from Anne's new positioning in the universe.
It suddenly came into my head when I was going round the Tate Gallery in London that the passing of a soul is or can be very much like the launch of a satellite. It needs the power to leave the ground and then needs further power to position itself exactly where it can reach the most people.
I would suggest that no act of love, no prayers and no good wishes were wasted because they were all converted into rocket fuel. I'm seeing that praying as a shopping list is a complete waste of time because we are as blind people.
I think the main thing is to hold people in the light and let this highest common denominator of intelligence get on with it. I can now understand Anne's periods of absence from her body prior to passing, some would say long sleeps. She was visiting and planning the next stage of her contribution.
I now see why we should celebrate. We have got three huge elements right, Jack on the ground, Anne radiating powerfully from her personal satellite, and of course strong links with Diana and her satellite and their contacts. It is quite an array of light.
I have got very strong impressions from Anne who visits me from time to time. It is definitely a new type of feeling a bit like liquid velvet. I think she is trying to connect us all together in a symphony of light and I envisage between ourselves and Anne a thin line of light, a bit like a strand of a maypole or fishing lines. This tripartite configuration will I think be used in the bringing forward of the light to the earth. If we fight the darkness we are doomed to failure but if we illuminate mankind we're on the right track.
So, Jack, if you have ever been bored you can now delete that word from your vocabulary. I was in The Mall during the spontaneous expressions of grief for the passing of Diana in the form of thousands and thousands of bouquets. I believe Jack that you will experience bouquets of flowers coming out of nowhere and your path will be mightily blessed and everything you need will come to you.
Let the show begin. Brian Snellgrove.
We are so happy to have had the privilege of knowing Anne and to have had the benefit of sharing in her enormous gifts to humanity. She will be sorely missed.
