I am so shocked and saddened to hear of my friend Anna's passing. We kept in touch often from Tucson to Ecuador to Savannah. She was such a wonderful friend! I will think of her forever.

Anna was a wonderful friend to me (and everyone) in the Salinas community. A generous hostess who made me feel so welcomed when I stayed with her on a long visit there after I returned to the states. She taught me many recipes, and entertained with her myriad stories of all her careers and experiences. She found it easy to love and be loved. I will remember her fondly forever. My deepest condolences to the family, and may her memory be a blesding.

Anna was one of the first people I met at Skyline Club Estates in Tucson, Az. She was such a loving, caring individual .Her heart was full of love and she was selfless to a fault . Inspite of having serious health issues she set out to start a new life in Ecuador in her 60’s. She had a lot of guts. She loved living there and found what she was looking for.. I am sorry I lost touch with Anna . Your mom was an inspiration to us all.

Anna is my cousin. We grew up together on fox Meadow road in Scarsdale. Our mothers were bffs. I reconnected with her 20 years ago because we were both in Az. We had so much fun together! We traveled to New York to see relatives, then to San Francisco to meet more distant relatives, then to fun places like Park City Utah, Ecuador, etc. We often dreamed in recent years of taking a cruise together. I have a hole in my heart where her kind, selfless , loving cousin will live forever. Jill Gertz Pack

I met Anna at our real estate office. She was always a caring friend. Anna was talented in so many ways. She was an outstanding cook and hostess. She loved to decorate and helped me with my home. Anna was always there for her friends and very caring. I was sad when she left Tucson. We communicated but regretfully not as often as I would have liked. Blessings and Condolences to Heather and Ben and her grandchildren. Fran Pakenham, Tucson, Arizona

Anna was my good friend/real estate agent. Spent many hours sharing good times and bad. She was always there with a shoulder and advice. My best memory was the cruise we took up he west coast into Canada. We shared a state room and went many places. Anna, being Anna did all the arranging for the trip and I followed. I was in good hands. Will really miss her upbeat self. Betty Wiener

We are saddened to learn of Anna's passing. While in Ecuador she was a big part of our community. Always giving, always caring for others. The pictures are of Anna and her students. She volunteered many times to help me with English in the Workplace which helped young (and old) who could not afford to pay for lessons learn English so they could work and many improved their lives because of Anna's kindness. She was there for her friends and community always. Rest in Peace dear Anna. God comfort those who love you and give them strength.

I've been away for couple years and just found out... may her memory be a blessing. Anna is a big part of who I am now. Her laughter, her presence, and her kind heart is incomparable. She was like a mother to me who i looked up to and respected, and forever am grateful to Hashem that He blessed my life by giving me the opportunity to have known her, learned from her, and now look forward to continue to making her proud. I pray for her children and family that her legacy continue through them and her memory be a blessing to them too.
