As a great grandchild it is hard knowing that she passed away I've known her for 13 years and know that she was a great grandma she was happy knowing where she was going with the father of this world it is upsetting knowing she's gone but also happy that she is where she wanted to be for the last days of her life, I hope that god will take care of her.

I grew up on Poland Hill and went to school with Mrs. Corwin's children. I remember as a very quiet and nice lady. My thoughts and prayers are with your family at this time.

I wasn't lucky enough to know Anna until she moved to Bickford, where my mother, Ruthanna Oppy, lives. She quickly became a favorite of mine and of my mother's. My day was always made better when I was lucky enough to get to talk with her. We will miss her greatly. I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to know her.
