She will be lovingly remembered by her children Jim (Cathy), Frances (Dan), Tony (Donna), Bill, Dave (Janet), Charlie (Karen), Bird, and Louise (Gerry). Cherished Gramma to 24 grandchildren and GG (Great Gramma) to 20 great-grandchildren.

Predeceased by her parents Oscar and Martha (nee Scherrer) Kuntz; Brothers David, Bob, Paul, Louie and Sister Doris Karai. Anne was a lover of life, one who was always willing to try her hand at just about anything and everything. She would open her home to anyone in need and excelled at giving. There was always room at the table for one more and she welcomed you with a smile.
