Additional Remembrances

Anna is irreplaceable. She was caring, connected, intelligent, sweet and quirky. I fell in love with her when I was her interventional fellow and brought my family thousands of miles from NY to Albuquerque to visit with her and Laurel. She was an inspiration to those who knew her well.

I was one of Anna's radiology transcriptionists at UNMH. She was always kind and helpful and never made us feel like we were inferior to her. She was a diamond in the rough, and we all have lost a truly wonderful and remarkable lady, doctor and friend. We miss you.

I will always remember Dr. Champlin. She was an amazing MD and it was always my pleasure to care for any of her patients.

I remember Dr. Champlin from when I worked at the VA Medical Center under Drs. Mettler and Harstshorne. She was a very sweet woman and I enjoyed working with her very much.

I am truly sorry for the loss of this kind and caring lady. I knew Anna from my years of working with her in the Radiology Department at UNMH. She always made time for others and was a joy to be around. She will be missed.
