Anita could always find fun whether it was going to family reunions, helping a neighbor who was locked out of his house or a relative on the Winkler side of the family who was blind and needed assistance. She and Anita became very good friends. Anita loved traveling with her husband and daughter to different U.S. destinations and out of the country. She was the queen of camping out! Her favorite places were the "cow pasture" at Dillon Beach and the family cabin in Kyburz.
Anita was a long time employee of the Sacramento Army Depot where she enjoyed many friendships and in retirement, the employee reunions. After her husband Dean died, she looked forward to the Brown Family Reunions, as each June relatives would come stay with her for several days. Everyone piled into beds at night with stories and memories to share; like the time she slept in her niece's baby crib before the niece was even born.
Despite her age, Anita was either emailing or chatting on the phone to her nieces, nephews and other relatives. She loved the modern conveniences that accompanied computers. Upon developing Alzheimer's Anita moved into Eskaton Care Center where she stayed active visiting others and singing in their church choir. She may not have recognized her family, but she remembered the traveling distances to different places, and would challenge stories she felt might not be the truth.
She was feisty and spry until she had her very first operation at 98 years old after fracturing her hip in a fall. She had never been confined to a bed before and with her Alzheimer’s it must have been very scary with all the changes that suddenly happened to her. She died just a short week later.
