Anna Helen Wolfinger

Anna Helen Wolfinger, 96, of Quakertown, passed away on September 25, 2024, at Saucon Valley Manor in Hellertown. 

She was the beloved wife of the late Harold “Jake” Wolfinger with whom she shared 63 years of marriage before his passing in 2015. 

Born at the Diehl Farm in Quakertown, she was the daughter of the late Vernon and Helen (Diehl) Hartzell.

Anna worked at the former Sapphire Hosiery Mill in Quakertown for 21 years before becoming a beautician and working out of her own home. Most recently, she worked as a secretary for her late husband’s painting and papering business, H. Wolfinger & Son Inc. in Quakertown. 

She was a faithful member of Quakertown United Methodist Church, Quakertown West End Women’s Auxiliary #2, and member of the Eastern Star Lenape Chapter No. 339 of Sellersville for over 50 years.

Anna had a passion for cooking and baking, often preparing meals for friends, family, and the church. She was an avid bingo player and loved playing the piano for church services. Most of all, she cherished her family and adored spending time with her grandchildren and great grandchildren. She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.

She was preceded in death by her great-grandson, Maddox.

Anna will be lovingly remembered by her son: Richard A. Wolfinger and wife June of Quakertown; a daughter: Teena Derkosh and her husband William Corry of North Wales; three grandchildren: Jason Derkosh, Keith Wolfinger, Janel Derkosh; and six great grandchildren: Camryn, Mara, Meela, Leighton, Caden, and Max.
