Anne founded the Christmas Giving Project which provided a shopping experience for the children of Head Start and Christian Child Care at Christmas to pick out gifts and have them wrapped for family members.

She was an avid Chicago Cubs fan and enjoyed reading and writing poetry. She shared her love of reading by starting a children’s library at Christian Child Care in Lincoln. She arranged for readers to read to the children both there and Head Start.

She was employed for many years in the office of Hoblit Seed Company in Atlanta and had worked at the Country Aire Restaurant. Anne was also the owner of Phanny’s in Atlanta for 10 years. She served on the Atlanta Public Library Board.

Memorials may be given to the First Presbyterian Church Christmas Giving Project.

Final arrangements are entrusted with Peasley Funeral Home of Lincoln.
