Anna Mae Spindler
April 16, 1937 - December 2, 2025
Madison, Indiana — Anna Mae Spindler, 88, formerly of Mercer County, Pennsylvania, passed away peacefully on December 2, 2025. She was born on April 16, 1937, in the Number 5 Mine area of Springfield Township in Mercer County, where she spent her early years before graduating from Mercer High School in 1956.
Anna Mae was known for her warm personality, her love of classic country western music, and her unique collections, particularly Native American-style trinkets and military hats. She treasured life's simple comforts, especially her quiet mornings with a cup of coffee and Lorna Doone cookies — a ritual that brought her daily joy and peace.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Helen and Theodore Irwin; her brother, Robert William (Bill) Irwin; and her children, Linda Spindler, Helen Grove, and Kenneth Robert Spindler.
She is survived by her children, David Spindler, Connie Ingels, and Kathryn Spindler; along with nine grandchildren and eighteen great-grandchildren, all of whom she loved deeply and proudly.
Services will be held at Smith Funeral Home (Village of Leesburg), located at 1178 Perry Highway, Volant, PA.
A viewing will take place on Tuesday, December 9, from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.
The funeral service will be held on Wednesday, December 10, at 11:00 a.m. at the same location.
