For years, she attended exercise classes at the Elmwood Senior Center. Anna enjoyed cooking, family gatherings, reading novels, and watching the UCONN men and women's basketball teams.
Anna was a constant source of inspiration to her family and friends. She was always positive and cheerful, kind, and willing to listen or help anyone.
