 She was born July 25, 1960 in Mount Kisco, NY, the daughter of Dr. Hugh and Alice McGowan of Katonah and graduated from St. Mary's School in Katonah, John F. Kennedy H.S. in Somers, NY and Southern CT State University with an MS degree in Education. Anne was employed by the Newtown Board of Education as a Teacher at the Sandy Hook Elementary School.

School aide, art teacher, special education teacher. She was one of 7 and had 4 children herself. Loved art and painted a mural. Every Memorial day she would return to Katonah, NY to watch her Dad march in the parade. Her final act was to embrace Dylan Hockley and other students. Dylan loved his teacher so much he kept a picture of her on his refrigerator.
 
 
 
On November 1st, I will take a walk in the outdoors with my family in her Mrs. Murphy's memory.
