Anna was born in a little country farmhouse near Sedgewick, Alberta. She took pride in where she came from and sharing with her family the house, memories of taking care of farm animals, riding her horse to school and the little country church she grew up in. Her love for learning and of singing and praising God led her to Camrose Lutheran Bible School where she met the love of her life, Morris.
They were later married at that little beloved country church on May 15th 1957. Soon after they moved to Prince Rupert where they were blessed with a family.
Upon moving to Prince Rupert Anna took on several jobs when family life allowed, her last with Rupert Cleaners and the ferry cleaning crew.
Anna cherished her aquasize classes that became McDonald's coffee get together's being a part of the Prince Rupert Rotary Choir and above all, taking part in regular worship services at St Paul's Lutheran Church.
At her church, Anna and her childhood friend Helen Stamnes would share their musical talents during Sunday School sing along, Sunday worship service and often during weddings or funeral's. Anna's open acceptance and ability to listen and compassionately be there for others has become a shining example and inspiration for most all she knew.
