Leo and I are simply feeling so sad for you all.Over the years, we have always felt so fortunate to have had the privilege to share and celebrate so many memorable family events with you.Regretfully,we won't be able to join, this time, as you say farewell to Anna.

Lynn Wallace posted a condolence
While it has been many, many years since we were neighbours I will never forget the kindness of Mrs Boyle. She always had room for one more child at a meal, for sleepovers both in the house and in the big tent in the yard, trips to the camp etc. I remember she made the most delicious apple pie. My family Bertha(known as Patty), my brother Raymond and myself remember her as a welcoming, hard working, strong woman who we will never forget. Our sincere sympathy in the loss of your Mom. Lynn, Raymond and Patty.

To all of Dennis and Anna's children I would like to express my sincere condolences. My father, Anna's cousin the late Murray Knowles, my late mother Jodie Knowles and I visited Anna in the summer of 2006. My father kept in touch with Anna and Mary and passed on some of her articles and research projects. In particular I remember those on First Nations issues. My father's admiration for his cousin Anna and her incredible courage and accomplishments was boundless. My warmest thoughts are with you all as you go forward without your wonderful mother.

Dennis, Mike et al, we were truly saddened to learn of your mom's passing and felt terrible for not being able to pay our respects to you and yours in person. Your mother was an amazing woman and we had no idea how accomplished and full her life had been... a tremendous role model for her family. How proud of your mom you must have been! With twelve children, many grandchildren, and great grandchildren, her legacy will certainly live on.

Jonathan Barry posted a condolence
From one of your fellow members of large Irish Catholic lower west side families, and on behalf of other Barry family, our sincerest condolences. We would often be at mass at the Assumption with many of you and my grandmother would remind us to say a prayer for Anna so she could have the strength to raise all those kids! Understanding the way it works, I am sure you all raised each other - no doubt part of her teaching to all of you. We all hope you were able to use the sad occasion to have an otherwise great Irish wake and family get together with many of the Anna stories remembered and told once again.

Hello to all the Boyles, I just was on Brennan's website and saw the obituary for your dear mom. The last time I saw Anna was at the Saint John airport several years ago. She and mom had their usual friendly chat and I listened as these two amazing ladies exchanged stories and laughed together. I know the huge void your mom's passing will leave in all of your lives. I do know that heaven has gained one more angel from a wonderful generation of people! Keeping you all in my prayers. Hugs, Sue

So sorry to read of the passing of your Mom. I always enjoyed meeting her at the store (Canadian Tire West) and assisting her to help her find the things she was looking for. We had a connection because she taught my older brother Bruce at Prince Charles School (1950s) and he would mention her often. She was an amazing individual and was always on a mission. Your Mom did an amazing job raising all twelve of you and was proud of all her children. She will be greatly missed but those of us whose lives she enlightened . May she Rest In Peace. FPRT

It is with deep sorrow that I read of you mother's passing. I was unaware that she was ill. I know that my parents will be saddened to hear of her passing. Regrettably for me, I urgently want to attend her funeral but I have an existing appointment which was scheduled last year and at which I must be present. Please understand that I am there at your mother's funeral in spirit. Know that your mother has done much and my mother often called your mother a saint and that your mother is now resting in the Palm of God's Hands. Anna, requiescat in pace.

My sincerest condolences to all the members of the Boyle family. All my memories and encounters with your Mom were certainly extremely interesting and somewhat indescribable as where else could you have your mind and belly fed. These occasions made you feel like royalty especially when Chris, Pat,John and Mona would greet you with such enthusiasm taking your coat, sliding a chair for you and offering you their handshake. What a sense of good feeling overcame one at those times. Thank you Anna for those times. Say Hi to Denny for me. Please don't tell him about the "Pal-O-Mine" bar. God speed Anna.
