Ancramdale, NY - Anne M. Turbet, 83, a resident of Ancramdale, NY and West Palm Beach, FL, passed away on Tuesday, April 3, 2012 at Noble Horizons Nursing Home in Salisbury, CT. after a brief illness.

She was born on August 19, 1928 in the Bronx, NY, the daughter of the late Patrick and Helen(McLaughlin) Crowley.

Anne met her husband of 62 years, John Turbet, while working at Morgan Guaranty Trust Co. in NY. She also worked for Singer Sewing Co. and Good Samaritan Hospital, both on Long Island. After raising her children in Seaford, NY, Ann and her family lived for a number of years on Fire Island and Oak Beach, NY. She and her husband retired to Ancramdale, NY in 1992, sharing their time between Ancramdale and West Palm Beach, FL.

Anne was very proud of her Irish heritage. She was 1st generation Irish and always enjoyed an Irish sing-a-long or dancing the Irish jig. A highlight of her life was when she and her husband traveled with the Young at Hearters to Ireland, where she actually met one of her cousins.
