Anne was born April 12, 1924 in Utica, the daughter of the late John N. and Ruth Prichard.

She was employed at Griffiss AFB for 31 yrs, retiring in 1985. She was a member of the Bartlett Baptist Church where she was a member of the Ladies Aid and had previously served as a deacon.
Anne's wonderful Christian example and her amazing selfless love were such an inspiration to all of her family, friends and every life she touched. She was a life long member of Alanon for 60+ yrs.
