Read MoreAnita Eck... A very special and beautiful soul. We shared many conversations during her courageous fight. About a week before she passed I received a text that read ..."the ship is battered but the anchor holds strong!" I miss her deeply and will never forget my special friend. I look forward to the day we meet again.

Anita (Cous'n Neeter), my cousin, my friend, my confidante, the sister I always longed for. I am bereft without you. Positive to the end, we were making plans for a weekend getaway and, later on, a cruise to the Panama Canal (where her dad and my mom lived for a while). I'm SO glad you convinced us to move out here (ever the mother hen, you were gathering your family around you) and I am thankful for the time we spent together - we managed to pack in a lot of fun and lots of long talks...

Anita is gone but will never be forgotten. She left her family much to early but only because God has a plan for her. Although gone she will always be looking over her family as she did while she was still with us. Family was very important to Anita. She was a very special wife to Steve, mother to Stephanie and Jared and grandmother to Cooper, Brinley Justice and Tyris. Our lives will go on with many precious memories of this very special women. She is gone from us but will never be...

what a very special women who left all of us way to soon. We are so happy to have known Anita for the last 5 years and to intertwine with her as our families united with the marriage of our kids. She was always there for her family and really enjoyed the time spent with her grand children. all that have known her will miss her dearly in the ongoing years. Although gone her spirit will live with all of us through the years. Rest in peace with the lord Anita. I know you are watching over us all.

My heart is broken. I only got to know her in the hospital but I loved her all the same. Anita was truly a favorite patient and we were all drawn to her. I will miss her. Steve, I can't imagine your sorrow. You and your family are in my prayers.
