Anna over the years welcomed a number of children into their home and she is still considered a second mom by many. 

Anna was the kindest woman around. However, she was a bit of a spitfire as well. She was the type of woman that would give you the last bit of money or food she had and she would go without. That being said…She would not hesitate to give you some “ Words Of Wisdom “ if she felt the need. Anna was absolutely one of a kind and loved everyone MOSTEST! 

All family and friends are invited to the memorial service on Saturday, October 12th from 11-2 pm at The Venue on N Main St in Graford, Tx. Pastor Luke Nievar will officiate the ceremony. There will be a lunch reception to follow. Graveside service will be at a later date for immediate family and friends.

John 14:1-4 “Do not let your hearts be troubled, you believe in God; believe also in Me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also be where I am. You know the place where I am going. “
