KANN, ANNA MAE After 88 years of family, friendships, service and hijinks Anna Mae (Kohl) Kann died peacefully in Albuquerque on October 11. Anna Mae was born on the northwest side Chicago, on May 14, 1926, the third child and first daughter of Veronica (McCarthy) and Joseph Kohl; her younger twin sisters followed a few years later. Her life was filled with joy, accomplishment and tragedy. She lost a younger sister, Joan, to a childhood accident, and her oldest brother, Ken, in WW II. Anna Mae was a talented tap dancer, performing at the World's Fair in Chicago as a youngster. Anna Mae met her future husband, Robert Kann in the closing days of the War, on a Sunday afternoon in a neighborhood tavern. She married the love of her life, and was blessed with four children. When her youngest started grade school, she was recruited to substitute teach. The next year she became a full-time member of the faculty and spent 20 years teaching 7th and 8th grades. She was a superb teacher. Anna Mae was active in her church and community, and enjoyed social events. These social events merged circles of friends and absorbed new generations. After retirement, Anna Mae and Bob moved from Chicago to Orcas Island in the San Juan Islands of Washington State. Though she lost Bob after 46 years of marriage, she stayed on the island, volunteering at the public library, the senior center, and her church. Finally, 11 years ago, Anna Mae moved to Albuquerque to be close to family. Anna Mae loved Chicago, being Irish, Jazz, family and a good time. She was troubled by injustice and suffering and did what she could to alleviate it. She is survived by her sister Dolores and brother-in-law Larry; her children Kevin, Terry, Veronica and Deirdre; her son-in-law Steve and daughter-in-law Catherine; and her grandchildren Amelia, Alex, Joe and Gloria; her extended family including nieces, nephews and now their children, and many friends. She will be sorely missed here, but will surely be joyously welcomed by those loved ones who preceded her. The family would like to share their gratitude to her caregivers, for their faithful and loving care over the past three years. A memorial service is scheduled for Saturday, October 18, 2014, at 3 pm at Daniels Family Funeral, 3113 Carlisle NE, Albuquerque. A mass will be held in the Chicago area in November.
