While there are many memories of/with Anna, on this occasion, I am thinking of two of them.
When Anna children were young, my best friend Richard and I were in our late teens (16-18 years). From time to time, we would visit Anna and the children during the day when my brother-in-law Bill was at work. Anna would always feed us a meal, of course, and we would have good conversation. Then we would do an efficient job of getting the children riled up, especially the boys. After a half hour or so of this, we would hug Anna and say "well, we have to go now"!
After we left, she would have to spend some time calming them down, as if she didn't have enough to do with caring for 5 children!
The second recollection is from a time that I was dating a girl that I thought I really liked.
This was before my dating years with Kathy, my wife of 51 years. I went to Anna to talk about
my experiences with the girl in question who was very nice. I was asking for Anna's advice.
As we were getting near to the end of our time talking about this, Anna said "Be careful that you don't think that you like someone just because she likes you". That impressed me and stuck with me through my subsequent dating days and, as you can see, still impresses me. The relationship didn't work out and I later wished the girl well. Fortunately, this opened the door to dating Kathy who has been a wonderful wife, mother, and grandmother for all of these years with me.
She is the love of my life. -------------------------- John Ena, Anna's baby brother!

Dear Ann,

I've been thinking about the many fun times that we've (all) had together in the family. There were so many fun Sundays on Mt. Pleasant Avenue and on Parkside Drive. I always looked forward to you and my other sisters "coming down to the house". I've always enjoyed being around all of you, my brothers-in-law, the nieces, and nephews. The other day, I was thinking about some of the later pinochle games at Parkside. On one particular Sunday, you and Helen decided to play; Bill and I were the opposition. This game was quite different from the ones that I was used to with our Father, Joe, and my brothers-in-law. You and Helen talked about the children, corrected the children, reviewed the upcoming store sales, made plans, and still managed to beat Bill and I handily. And, yes, most of that conversation was going on during the hands! At the end of the game, I looked over and Bill was just shaking his head. We stood up and made room for the next team.

I remember many fun times at Mayfield Avenue. I enjoyed coming over and just talking; or stirring up your children! We had a few good conversations, on the screened porch when I was dating. I appreciated them. I so enjoyed the many New Years' Eve parties that you and Bill would host.

I could go on but you're remembering things better than I. I will also remember your courage in the difficult years and I see that as a testimony to your spirit and to the Lord's presence.

Finally, I'll try always to think of the fun times. I believe that's what you would want. Oh, yes, thanks for taking my prom pictures as well!

I love you,

John

Dear Aunt Annie,

Thank you for all of your support, encouragement, and fun when we were growing up. You do know that we never really sat on the steps and talked about school. We were always having too much fun.

Thanks especially for listening to me play "Somewhere My Love" on the piano eight thousand times and acting like it was always the first time you heard it.

Most of all thank you for giving me five wonderful cousins. They are extraordinary people. I think of you everyday and know how important you are to us all.

Love,

Debbie

Dear Aunt Annie, thank you so much

for being such a fun part of my

childhood. Thank you also for the

arnold toast on the tv table while

watching Bonanza, Gunsmoke, and the

wide world of Disney. The crabs, and the good times with the Colts,

and the orioles were appreciated,

on that incredible back screened

in porch. What a great childhood

that Grandpop & Grandmom provided

for all our family.

Aunt Annie, I remember the courage

that you had, and you provided for

our friends on Mayfield Dr. When

there was a crime of unmentional

deeds. We were so very proud of

you then.

I have recently learned, that it

would have been better in recent

times to have seen you. I regret

that.

What I have learned is simply this:

Thank you for being an important

part of our family. Thank you for being my aunt. And thank you for being my Godmother.

Dear Miss Ann,

I would just like for you to know your family is in our prayers and thoughts constantly. Our hearts ache for them. Bill & I often talked about things that went on at your house when we were there. He said he often felt like one of the family. Even down to you fussing at him about something just like you would do to the boys. I know you will look down on your family from heaven.

All Our Love,

Debbie, Bill

Ann,

Remembering all the early years when you and I pushed our kids in the stroller on Eastern Ave.shopping

Also comes to mind how we shared a cabwith our small children to Mt. Pleasant Ave. to take care of Mom when she had pneumonia til she got better.

All our daily phone conservations, of course, about the children.

All the shows we saw together

Walking back to your house from the Vilma movies scared to death after seeing "Psycho."

All the Halloween Parties at your place for the kids.

All the times at Mom's house on Easter you tried to line up all the grandchildren, 14 at that time, to take their pictures-took about 2 hours. Remembering one time, Diane being the oldest , trying hard to hold the littlest ones for so long finally said "Aunt Annie, that's it" so you finally snapped the picture.

And, of course, the candy buttons, you had to get the candy buttons. Hope they have them for you in heaven.

Ann, you had so many jobs, but your most importasnt was your family, especially your children. Well, you were a success.

Just take a look down while you're up there.I could go on and on but you know thr rest.

Your loving sister,

Helen

Although I never met Miss Anna personally, I am aware of her courage, determination and love of her family. I have been made aware of this by my association with her children which have been a reflection of her courage, loyalty and love. I am so sorry for their loss and thankful to have had the opporunity to know her through her children.

To Miss Ann (my mother-in-law):

How appropriate that this web site is called legacy. Your legacy of love, strength and courage will be carried on through all of your grandchildren. I see it everyday in Bekah and Angela. Mick is working tirelessly to preserve your memory. You would be proud. We love you and miss you.

Love, Susan

God Bless my Aunt Annie.

She was a wonderful and loving Mother, Wife, Sister, Daugher, Aunt, and Neighbor. All my thoughts and memories of Aunt Annie are happy ones. She always had a jokes and puns that had to make anyone chuckle. She was a good card player around the dining room table at my Grandmother's house. And was a great Orioles fan as she listened to the games on the radio.

She is loved by her family.

God bless Aunt Annie.

Love,

Bob, Joyce, and Bobby Weidle
