My thoughts and prayers go out to Anne and her family. I hope she makes a full recovery and this heartless coward is caught. No one should have to face this kind of violence. Especially over a purse! I have been robbed myself and they took little things but this poor woman had alot more taken from her than a purse. I hope the police find this coward and he pays for what he did to Anne. Stay strong Anne and we cannot wait to see your smile on tv again!

Seems like it would be someone she knows. First of all who ever it was didn't use force to get in, and why would someone break in to take just her purse? I will be praying for her.

We feel like Anne is a menber of our family. She is like a breath of fresh air every time she appears on TV. We sincerely hope the sleezy creature that did this will be brought to justice very soon. Who knows where he are lurking to pounce on some other innocent person. Our thoughts and our prayers go out to Anne's family and the doctors treating her. May God be with them all.

Looking at the news and seeing all of this just brought tears to my eyes. How could someone be so cruel and beat a woman who's heart has always been in the right place? Anne's smile never harmed anyone. I pray that whoever has done this will be brought to justice. Anne, I will keep you safe in my prayers. Just keep smiling and do not lose faith. Jessica Willis
