Anna was born Jan. 27, 1922 on a farm a few miles West of Sterling Oklahoma where she helped her 6 siblings raise crops, pick cotton, tend to the animals and other tasks of farm life. She attended Sterling Elementary School and graduated from Sterling High School as Valedictorian of her class. After graduation she accepted a job with the phone company in Lawton, OK and volunteered to help the Catholic Church and USO in entertaining the young men stationed at Fort Sill. One particular dance would be a life-changing event. She met Pasquale "Pat" Vincent Capuccio and the couple married on May 1st, 1944 in Sterling. A few months later Pat went off to war and young Anna moved in with her husband's family in Staten Island, NY. Approximately a year later the couple was re-united and began their life together. Anna would give birth to 5 children in New York and the family would relocate back to Southwest Oklahoma in 1961 and a year later give birth to a 6th child. It was here in Elgin, Oklahoma that Anna would continue to love and serve her family, friends and Saint Ann Catholic Church until she moved to Ten Oaks Retirement home in 2014. She was a member of Saint Ann's Alter society and the Senior Entertainers Bowling League.
