Anna was a member of KSKJ Lodge #29, CFU Lodge #18 and the Croatian Cultural Club. She was a devout Catholic and parishioner of St. Mary Nativity Catholic Church in Joliet. Anna was an expert at baking apple strudel and potica that everyone loved.

She was an avid Chicago Cubs fan and greatly enjoyed watching them win the World Series.
