Her father’s career in the US Air Mail service and airline industry resulted in the family living in many states and Canada. Anne graduated from Smith College, Class of 1945, where she majored in music. She worked in retail while her husband attended graduate school at MIT. They settled in Syracuse 66 years ago.
The mother of five children, Anne was a member of Pebble Hill Presbyterian Church, the Onondaga Golf & Country Club, the Century Club, Syracuse Symphony Guild, the Everson Museum and the Smith College Club; and a sustaining member of the Junior League of Syracuse. Anne enjoyed golf, playing the piano and she was an accomplished quilter. A loyal fan of SU basketball, football and lacrosse; one of her happiest moments was when the basketball team won the NCAA Championship on her 80th birthday. Anne loved her family and friends and was very generous.
