She made a lasting impact on her grandchildren and great-grandchildren teaching them the importance of compassion and the value of small acts of service throughout the community.

She was happiest during the family birthday celebrations, holiday dinners, anniversaries and traveling to visit her siblings in Lufkin and New Braunfels. She enjoyed spending time with her childrens families participating in various activities and watching the Texans beat the Cowboys. She got such joy by simply picking up her grandchildren from school and taking them to dinner. She will be greatly missed and loved. Anna Marie will walk beside us, even on this day. She is unseen, unheard, though will always be near. She is loved abundantly, greatly missed, and forever dear. Your memory is our keepsake with which we will never part, but God has you in his keeping while we have you in our hearts.
