Anita was the most wonderful, gracious and loving person I ever knew. I knew Anita through her late husband George who was my flight instructor and fellow pilot at Mack Truck. I saw the strength and courage she had when George was killed in a plane crash. We all know she's enjoying her new life in a place where there is no sorrow and death; a place where we all will see her again. Anita's granddaughter, Alicia, said it best: “This isn't goodbye, it's just I'll see ya later.” Until then Anita, rest well and watch over us all.

To her family, my prayers and thoughts are with all of you. Anita will always be with you, still watching over you, until you get to see her again. Rest in peace Anita.

I love you so much, Nana. You left an imprint on my heart that nobody will be able to replace. “A bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck” to you, my love. Sleep tight. This isn’t goodbye, it’s just “I’ll see ya later.”
