She was born in Lancaster, raised in Sterling, and eventually moved to Shrewsbury. Anne graduated from the Major Howard W. Beal School, where she met her beloved Rocco. Anne was a loving and devoted wife, mother, and grandmother – she was a wonderful homemaker.
Anne enjoyed hosting holiday festivities, especially Christmas. She and Rocco were members of the Tower Hill Botanic Garden, and was a member of the Shrewsbury Garden Club and Women’s Club. Anne was also a member of the Friends Club, and the Hyannis Yacht Club.
They spent summers on the Cape, Hyannis to be exact. Anne was so proud of their home on Main Street, opening the doors for tours to fund the Women’s Club and the Garden Club.
Her family would like to extend their appreciation to Mary and Luci for their kind care and love shown to Anne, as well as to the compassionate staff of West River Agency.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to the Shrewsbury Senior Center, 98 Maple Avenue, Shrewsbury, MA 01545.
