Anita was such a precious lady. I’m so sorry to hear of her death. She made a big impression on my preschool son way back when. Condolences to her family.

Anita had such a giving heart and was such a sweet, loving Christian wife, mom and grandma. Even though I have never lived close, when we did get to see each other, it was like no time had passed. She and I would always catch up and reminisce about life and family. There were always plenty of laughs and hugs between us. We will miss Anita and wish we could be there. Cousins Randy, Anna and Bryan, we love you all and are here for you.
With love,
Brandon & Bridgett McKean

Sweet Anita, you will be missed. But I know your smile is lighting up heaven with the joy of meeting your Savior, and of seeing your sweet mother again! "I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love His appearing. " II Timothy 4:7-8
