Publish in a newspaper
Anna was born in Grand Haven, MI, to Jack and Anielia McCarthy on August 12, 1965. Anna loved to listen to music, work on jigsaw puzzles like her mom, write poetry, and watch the hummingbirds outside her bedroom windows. Anna enjoyed spending time with her family and grandkids and many phone calls with her family and friends back home.
Anna is preceded in death by her dad, Jack Mccarthy; and her step-father, Wayne Wilson.
She leaves behind a son, Josh (Cary Zysk) Olsen; a daughter, Amanda (Kevin Weaver) Olsen; her grandchildren: Sophia, Calvin and Grayson; her mom, Annie (Sweetie) Wilson; and her siblings: John, Joe, Jerald, Daniel, Mary, Theresa, and Robert.
A Celebration of Life will take place on Saturday, September 27, 2025, from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m., at the Knights of Columbus (1416 Washington Ave., Grand Haven, MI 49417).
In lieu of flowers, the family requests Memorial Contributions be made to Amanda Olsen and her family to help cover travel expenses, as she was her mom's caretaker for the last ten years.
Please share a memory with Anna's family below.
Poem:
For all the loved ones we have lost
Remember me
When the sun begins to fall
When the trees begin to sway
And night begins to call
Remember me when a butterfly takes flight
When the lightning bugs begin to glow
And the owl guards the night
The river will always flow on and on
The grass will always grow on and on
Remember me!
Love, Anna
