In her free time, Anna pursued various hobbies and passions. She found joy in tending to her garden.  She showcased her creativity through sewing and needle work.  She also loved to crochet.  Through the years she made over 100 afghans for family and friends.  She engaged her mind with challenging jigsaw puzzles and exploring new places through travel adventures.
