It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of AnnMarie Coe Thomas on Saturday November 4th, 2023. AnnMarie was born in Cranford, NJ on February 27, 1975, a beautiful soul who lived life to the fullest. AnnMarie lived with passion. Whether she was dressing up in her favorite Jimmy Choos, heading to a Pilates class, or going head-to-head with a top executive, AnnMarie approached life with a sense of fun and curiosity. And she brought other people along on her journey, with more friends than you can count, many of them former colleagues.
AnnMarie had a successful career in marketing communications, but her career was only one small aspect of her very full life. She was a natural connector who brought people together, whether it was for work or for fun. She loved to experience new things and invite others to join her, whether it was a sushi dinner with the girls, a karaoke session or a night out dancing. She had an adventurous spirit and a career that took her to live and work in different places across the US and the globe. She eventually returned to Seattle, to be close to her sister and friends.
AnnMarie lived bravely. She was born with a rare disease that affected her heart but she never let it stop her from pursuing her dreams and passions. She was always looking for a medical solution to her condition and never missed an opportunity to enjoy life and share it with others. AnnMarie touched the hearts of many people on her journey to live life to the fullest, and we are grateful to have had her in our lives. She is survived by her two sisters Raquel and Elizabeth, her dog Chloe, and her many close friends.
AnnMarie, we know you are in heaven with your parents, and we will always cherish the amazing memories, relationships, and experiences you gave us.
Memorial service will be held on Monday December 11th at 11:00 AM at the Holy Family Catholic Church in Kirkland, WA (7045 120th Ave NE, Kirkland, WA 98033), followed by a reception at the church.
