I do not have any memories of Anna. But from her history after graduating as a bearcat, she seemed to have led a good Christian life. I'm sorry for her families loss.

Anna and I have been friends since our Southwestern days. And ended up working at Post Cereal together for almost 30 years. She was a beautiful person, inside and out. She will surely be missed by all that knew her.
