Mother of three boys whom she raised alone from the time her husband died, of generalized Hodgkin's disease, when the youngest boy was 6 yrs. She never remarried. She passed away while her youngest son, Dexter, was in the Marine Corp boot camp. Dexter had a premonition of her death two hours before he was informed. Anna raised her three boys in a quaint house in Westchester, LA (Los Angeles, California). The house was torn down for the building of LAX (Los Angeles International Airport, Los Angeles, California). Her favorite perfume was Youth Dew by Este Lauder. Her youngest son, Dexter, had many visits from his deceased mother. When Dexter was doing good she would clap her hands and when he was not doing good she would shake her index finger at him. All three of her sons have passed away. She has four grand children, fathered by her two eldest sons, and at least four great-grand children. Her youngest son never had children of his own but helped in raising his first wife's four children.
She never got to see her youngest son, Dexter, marry and the step-children he helped raise, who loved him dearly.
