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

Country Aire Restaurant. Anne was also the owner of
Phanny’s in Atlanta for 10 years. She served on the
