In 2025, Anna relocated to South Carolina with her daughter and son-in-law.

Anna served as the office manager at the Southington Chamber of Commerce for 27 years. After retiring, she and her husband enjoyed winters in Sarasota, Florida, for 17 wonderful years.

In addition, to her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by her sister, Elsie Mucha and her husband, Edwin, and son-in-law, Philip Carmichael.
