She always said she worked for the citizens of Houston! When asked who your favorite Mayor is, she replied, all of them! Anna was an incredible civil servant; her dedication and steadfast integrity will always be admired! Her family greatly loved her, and she was a wonderful, loving Mother, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother, who will be missed. Her unconditional love and influence will live on in all of us, all the days of our lives!
A celebration of the life of Anna Russell will be held at 9:30am Tuesday, February 11, 2020, at the Hobby Center for the Performing Arts, Sarofim Hall, 800 Bagby Street, Houston, TX 77002.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the renovation of Hermann Square at City Hall. More information is available on the City of Houston website atwww.houstontx.gov/Anna-Russell.
The beautiful park grounds and reflection pool at the historic city hall is an appropriate place where family, friends and colleagues can meet and share memories about one remarkable woman!
