I had the pleasure of meeting "Anna Banana" as I called her while my father was a resident of Phoebe Home. She was and still is one of my favorite people. I loved the sparkle in her eye when she would see me and compliment me on my outfit! She was a true lady and I'm sure she'll be dearly missed by many. My sincere condolences to the family of Anna.

Dear Nana -
You will be missed. I will always have the memories - those of going to Sunday school and church with you and our ritual Saturday nights with the shows we watched, to our before bedtime snack of chocolate marshmellow ice cream, pretzels and water. The memories of shopping at Leh's and the window displays there during Christmas - you always made sure I got to see them. You were always singing and cleaning. You loved and cared for me throughout. I will always have the memories and glad that I had you a part of my life for all this time. Until we see each other again - I love you.
