Joya and Brad, my condolences. Your mother was my sorority sister as well as my former neighbor. I will always remember her grace, beauty and quiet determination. Even though I had lost touch with her in recent years, I truly admired her and loved her as a sister. I pray for your strength and peace during this difficult time.

Joya and Brad. I worked with Anna for many years at Langley AFB. Shortly after her retirement we met occassionally for lunch or dinner, over the years we lost touch. Your mother was an extraordinary lady. My condolences to both of you and the family for your loss.

It was an honor working for and with Anna for many years at Langley A.F.B. She was one of the brightest people I have been assosciated with in my more than 50 years of military and civil service. People of Anna's caliber are difficult to find in today's society.
Thanks, Anna!

Joya and Brad,
Anna was my childhood friend. Though we went our separate ways, I always thought of her as my dear and special friend. She was an exceptional person. Elaine Benn, Sun City West, AZ

Dear Joya and Brad, I will always fondly remember Anna and "Bubba". I last saw Anna at your home after the death of "Bubba". Anna and I talked a few times on the phone before I moved to California 30 years ago. She was a lovely kind person.
