PHILLIPS, ANNE JANE (formerly LAW, nee ARMSTRONG) October 3, 1941 – January 14, 2025. It is with great sadness that the family announces the peaceful passing of Anne Phillips on January 14 2025 in London, Ontario. Anne was a dear friend to all who knew her, a passionate lover of animals (demonstrated by her decades-long involvement with the Standardbred Racing community and her daily ritual of feeding her beloved “pet” squirrels), a passionate and talented gardener and above all a beloved Mother, Sister, Aunt, Nan and Grandnan.
Anne was always putting the care and concern for those around her before herself, making sure to support her dear friends in the Richmondwoods community in any way she could and always calling her lifelong friend Sheila to make she she was “taking care”. Throughout her life Anne played a special role in the lives of her grandchildren, nieces and nephews, making time to attend hockey games and school field trips, opening her home for a warm meal, a place to do laundry all while chatting and having a much needed visit while attending university.
She was predeceased by her beloved husband Donald ‘Garry’ Phillips; her dear friend and father of her son Norman Law, devoted sister Michelle Cooper (nee Armstrong) and parents Edwin (Ted) and Dorothy Armstrong (nee Carlton). Anne is survived by her son Michael ‘Mike’ Law (Liza Ethier), granddaughters Maggie and Kellie Law, great-grandchildren Lacee Thomas and Madilyn Law, sisters Kathy Wells (Dennis) and Susan Reid (Richard). Pauline, Jean, Holly and all of the wonderful individuals from At Your Service for Seniors who worked with Anne every day, a special thank you for the friendship and care you provided to her allowing her to live a full and colourful life after her move to London.
