With the exception of a few jobs outside of the home, Anna dedicated her life to God, her family, and the extended family of Humankind. In her own modest way she lived a life full of love, tolerance, and acceptance. She fostered many children in her home. Anna was known for her gifted ability to heal and care for children who had been abandoned, neglected, and abused.
