Annemarie Gustafson

Annemarie Gustafson was born in the Hague, Netherlands on June 16, 1949, the youngest of her six siblings. She fell in love with and moved to Canada in 1970. Shortly after she met Gary, the love of her life and her partner of 48 years. They lived together in different parts of Canada and retired back to Vancouver Island after her teaching career.
Together they raised two amazing sons. Her limitless kindness touched anyone who she spent time with. She always kept a childlike interest in the world, people and things around her, never stopped learning or caring, and knew how to listen with her heart. She was a true baby whisperer and Nature lover.
Annemarie loved God whole-heartedly and would share that love and passion with others.
She stood true to herself and blessed anyone who knew her with her talents. For her many grandchildren she was the fun "Oma" who cooked the best porridge, had great story telling sleepovers and drove the craziest car ever.
To Annemarie, everyone was a friend, equally precious in God's eyes.
Adventurous, funny, eccentric, compassionate, knowledgeable, loving, straightforward - that is how she will be remembered by her family and her many, many friends.
