Life story

Hi! Thank you for scanning this code and taking time to learn about the wonderful woman that was Anna Church.

Anna was a mother, grandmother, wife, sister, and friend to all. She inspired so many with her drive and commitment to persevere through any challenge given to her. She was raised in Perryville where she frequently attended church at Blythedale Seventh-day Adventist Church, and attended to her family farm— her favorite animal was her cow Bessie. She was an easy going, hard working woman who made who did everything she could for the people in her life. She was the head coach for Harford County Special Olympics bowling for many years where she got to watch her son thrive on the team. Her laughter was contagious and she could make so many people happy without realizing. Everyone in her large circle of friends and family miss her presence every day, but we let her live on through memory. Please feel free to view these photos that help speak to her sweet and fun character.
