Anna Lee was a devoted wife of more than 67 years and loved spending time with her family and friends.  She loved cooking and baking, especially for her family, and making their favorite foods.  Picture taking was a fun thing she did at special gatherings.

She loved working outside in the yard.  Anna and Conrad loved traveling and took several long trips from the eastern states to the western states.  They always enjoyed going places together and working on projects at home.  They truly enjoyed their life spent together.
