Anna never worked outside the home. She liked to spend her time making latch hook rugs and stuffed pillows that she would give away as presents for birthdays and holidays. She loved Easter, and dyeing eggs with her granddaughter brought her much joy. She loved country music, especially Tanya Tucker, and would spend hours singing her songs as she cleaned her house. She was a lover of animals, and always had at least 2 or 3 pets. Although life wasn’t always easy for Anna, she never lost sight of God in her life. She taught her daughter, Jessica, to say the Lord’s Prayer every night before bed, and when she prayed to “be specific, not general.” Anna believed that God answered specifics. In 1991, life circumstances caused her to lose contact with her sons O'ryan and Zachary. She never lost her faith that someday they would be reunited. Anna met the man that stood by her side and helped her overcome her loss and hardships, Randy Brimer. He stood by her side and helped her through life for over 28 years. On September 3, God must have been listening to Anna’s specific prayer. Anna always wanted to be reunited with her sons, she never forgot them. Time was not on her side and GOD was calling her home. That day, an inexplicable event took place, and through GOD’s hand, Jessica was able to make contact with her long lost brother, O'ryan. Although she was unable to speak, Anna was able to hear her son's voice through FaceTime. She was able to know he was doing fine and that he had never forgotten her either. He told her to go in peace, that he forgave her and he loved her. Anna Marie passed away 20 minutes later with her sister Karen, her beloved Randy, daughter Jessica and, via FaceTime, son O'ryan all by her side.
