LARKIN, Anne H.B. Larkin, RPN, ODT - On Sunday, January 28, 2024, we lost our angel, Anne.
After a sudden and brief illness, Anne died peacefully surrounded by members of her family.
Anne is predeceased by her parents Margaret and Montague Larkin, and her nephew Tanner. She leaves her sister Shelagh (Sean), her brothers, Ted (Kate) and Peter, and her nieces Olivia and Lucy and nephews Taylor (Kira), Holden and Joe as well as her precious grandnieces Leah and Brooklyn.
She was simply the centre of our family. Though only 66 years old, she lived many lifetimes of impact on all those around her.
Anne would want to be remembered for how she made people feel rather than for her accomplishments. She was the most caring, loving, selfless, generous person in addition to being an exceptional sister, aunt, friend and care giver.
Anne was awarded the 2022 Order of the Diocese of Toronto in recognition of her lifetime of compassionate service to Christ Church Deer Park and their community breakfast program, the Churches on-the-Hill Food Bank and Yorkminster Park Meals on Wheels.
In 2013 Christ Church Deer Park created the annual "Anne Larkin Award' to honour those who have given extraordinary service to the life and community of the Church.
She was ever present and loving to all who had the extraordinarily good fortune of knowing her. She knew her mission early and lived her life fulfilling it.
A private family service has been held. Friends and family are welcomed to Christ Church Deer Park, 1570 Yonge St, Toronto on Friday, February 16th at 2:30 pm for a service and celebration of life. The family would love to hear your stories of how Anne touched your lives.
If you wish, please consider donating to Christ Church Deer Park, the Churches on-the-Hill Food Bank or Canadian Blood Services. Anne's legacy inspires us to be kind, be present and be loving every single day.
