Having worked together with Anna in the UNH library for 20 years, I treasured her good sense, humor, and mighty efforts in keeping the library's journals and students under control. I am sorry she didn't have more time to enjoy retirement, though I know that her family gave her much joy in the time she did have. My prayers are with you her family now, and for Anna in her new version of retirement from this world into the next.
