I was blessed to be part of your amazing family for 60 years! So many memories of which the favorite was padinky dust, that we were told we would receive if we were bad around Christmas! Just so you know it was always Robin’s fault! You were amazing with advice, love, and a scary scolding whenever I needed it. Fly high with the angels momma, and give a hello to my family. I will love and miss you until we meet again. If you girls need anything, I’m right around the corner. I love y’all.

The twinkle in her eye is gone on this side of the veil. We miss already the light she brought into life. With a lift in her voice and a tender word, Anna Joe made you feel like the most important person present. Her interests as well as her career spanned the future of computers starting with Fortran to praying and caring for women at the jail. A love of reading kept her mind sharp until her last day. Anna Joe you are an amazing woman, Jesus welcomes you. We miss you.

I worked with Anna Joe in the early 80’s at the answering service in Mason. She has been in my thoughts over the years. I so enjoyed out talks. Rest in peace. My prayers to all her family.
