Anita is survived by her husband of 45 years, Harry (Donald) Morrison; her children, Todd Skerl, Tracy Skerl Kreider (husband Chris), and Scott Skerl; and her grandson, Alexander “Zander” Skerl. In the blended family with Don, she is also lovingly survived by Don's children—Mark Morrison (and his late wife, Sue), Jennifer Morrison-Hodos (husband Tony), and Marjorie Richnavsky (husband Ron) and grandchildren, Lindsay Morrison Ryle (husband Josh), Lauren Morrison Negron (husband Alex), Jonathan Hargreaves, Bethany Hargreaves-Lewis (husband Gregory), and Stephen Hargreaves; and great-grandchildren Bryce Ryle, Brandon Ryle, and Nora Negron, were also held with care within the blended family she cherished.
Anita was the oldest of six children and is survived by her siblings: Charles (wife Christine), Gary (wife Evie), Donna (husband Bruce), Mark (wife Joyce), and BettyAnn (husband John). Anita's love for her brothers and sisters remained deep and enduring and she cherished each of them. She is lovingly remembered and by her many nieces and nephews and generations that followed.
She was preceded in death by her father, Charles Frederick Greve and mother, Elizabeth Greve (Dorrington); grandmother Jessica McCall and grandfather Mac McCall who lovingly help raise Anita held a special place in her heart.
Anita's life with Don during their 45 years together was filled with much fun as they shared a love of travel, laughter, home-cooked meals, and the joy of music and the arts. They also cherished several special dogs throughout the years, each a beloved as a family member.
She loved reading many books, cooking and fashion magazines and loved sharing Guideposts and Bible studies with Don. They enjoyed bowling, golfing, boating, camping, cruises and in her words "making adventures and memories"
They have always enjoyed sharing their faith and love and are so grateful for the community and worship at Tower Lakes Chapel for the last 12 years, an incredibly loving and caring community.
Through every season Anita's gorgeous smile always found its way to greet all that met her. Her warmth, kindness and unwavering faith touched every person she encountered.
Ceramics were her early art expression, but watercolor painting was the deepest of her artist passions.
She enjoyed studying intensely to become a docent at Pinewood Estate at Bok Tower Gardens in Lake Wales, where she was so proud of be a part of the community. Anita spent most of her life as a highly skilled and devoted administrative assistant, known for her professionalism, kindness and organization.
During her final years, Anita was cared for with extraordinary dignity, tenderness, and deep compassion by the staff of Life Care Center of Winter Haven. Their authentic love and unwavering presence were a blessing to her and to Don and her family. It was there in a place marked by exceptional care that Anita took her final breath and entered the presence of her Savior.
With deep faith and full assurance, we rejoice that Anita is now at peace in the presence of her Savior, Jesus Christ, whom she loved and trusted throughout her life.
A Celebration of Life service will be held on Monday at 11:00 a.m. at Tower Lakes Chapel in the Tower Lakes Community at 1895 Tower Lakes Blvd. Lake Wales, Florida 33859 . Following the service, the family invites all who wish to join them for a time of fellowship and a shared meal.
