Multumesc mult pentru accept, dar totodata cu durere in suflet, pentru ca cea in a carei cerc de prieteni sunt onorata sa ma aflu, nu mai este aici... O mare artista si un mare Om, pentru care am toata dragostea si admiratia... Sper sa fie pace in ceruri si sa ne priveasca de acolo, daruindu-ne un zambet de lumina din eter... Cristina

Je suis bien triste d'apprendre ton départ. Ça faisait un petit temps que je pensais à toi et que j'avais envie de te revoir et voilà que ça n'est plus possible... Tu as été un professeur et une chanteuse très importante dans ma vie. C'est toi qui m'a fait découvrir le jazz et la passion de cette musique. C'est toi qui m'a lancée sur ce chemin..Tu m'as transmis énormément de choses et je m'en rappellerai dans toute ma vie de chanteuse. J'ai toujours admiré cette technique incroyable et cette maîtrise du chant que tu avais. Tu chantes aujourd'hui encore dans mon coeur... Fanny
Mi-au dat lacrimile cand am auzit teribila veste.Am mai lacrimat o singura data in urma cu ani de zile cand am auzit de Freddie Mercury.Te-am rugat sa te faci bine...Mai aveai atat de multe de spus...Daca as avea o putere ti-as zice: "Vino inapoi!" ...ce tristete...ce rau imi pare..."Drum bun, Anca!" Dumnezeu sa te odihneasca in pace. Gilmaro - Toronto
Am simtit-o pe Anca apropiata de sufletul meu de cand am vazut-o prima data, chiar daca niciodata pe viu in fata mea...Caldura, vocea si sufletul ei au ajuns la mine si mi-au atins sufletul ca doua palme fierbinti de viata! Am plans vineri seara neputand sa inteleg cum ea nu mai este...am deschis fereastra tarziu in noapte...in liniste si am respirat adanc aerul rece...am zambit incet printre lacrimi, stelelor si i-am soptit doar ei...Anca, sa fie mereu sufletul tau liber si plin de lumina! Acolo unde esti tu! Multumesc pentru ca ai fost cu noi!
Chère Anca, Je venais juste de t'envoyer un mail pour prendre de tes nouvelles et voilà que j'apprends que tu es partie... Beaucoup de tristesse. Je garderai le souvenir d'une chanteuse qui possèdait une immense technique vocale... Véronique
Anca, multora dintre noi ne-ai deschis ochii, ne-ai luminat cu forta si pofta ta de viata. Cei in viata carora nu ai trecut nici macar ca o cometa, precum in existenta mea, au un mare gol in suflet. Celor care te-au cunoscut insa, le-ai intiparit o imagine vie pentru restul existentei. Ai trecut prin viata ... viata ta a fost scurta insa cu siguranta faci parte din acele fiinte alese sa lase in urma lor, clipe de neuitat ! Sunt sigura ca, acolo unde esti vei lumina in continuare pasii copiilor tai si vei fi unul din ingerii calauzitori ai muzicii. Ai plecat dintre noi cu zambetul pe buze, o voce extraordinara, a plecat fizic, ea este si va fi printre noi cu vocea si spiritul ei vesel..Dumnezeu sa-ti lumineze calea, vei ramane mereu in amintirile noastre.
Putem spune ca este una dintre cele mai bune voci ale jazz-ului din LUME si nu doar din Romania!! Este minunata, (nu a fost, ci este). Nu este o pierdere pentru noi, este un castig ca am avut-o, ne-a ramas talentul ei, ca fiind comoara Romaniei...Ne vom aminti mereu de ea. Haideti sa facem talentul ei recunoscut si apreciat in lumea intreaga, nici acum nu este prea tarziu, hadeti sa o pomenim tuturor cunoscutilor de peste hotare, sa o facem cunoscuta marilor muzicieni, sa ne laudam cu ea...Eva Cassidy, doar dupa ce a murit a devenit faimoasa in lumea intreaga, Anca merita si ea sa fie enumerata printre marile talente ale lumii...
