Anna Marie Bunch) (Van Buren Church

She was born on July 15, 1944 in Oneonta, the daughter of the late Tommie and Olga (Nielsen) Bunch.

Anna loved to read and enjoyed history. She was a natural family historian and her ability to remember who was related to whom and how is a gift that will be deeply missed. She was very proud of all of her children and was especially enchanted with her grandchildren and her great grandson.

She has left behind her son, Bill Van Buren and his wife Bernadette of Sharon Springs, NY; her daughters, Debora Van Buren and her husband Gary Langdeau, of Vermont, Katrina Loney and her husband Jon Loney, of Indianapolis, IN, Kristina McMullen and her husband Clint, of Indianapolis, IN, and Danielle Church of Tunkhannock, PA. Anna also leaves 11 grandchildren and 1 great grandson.

She was predeceased by her sons, John Van Buren and Donald Church Jr.

In keeping with Anna’s wishes, there will be no calling hours or funeral service.

In lieu of flowers, Anna’s family requests that you kindly consider making a donation in her memory to the Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation, 636 Morris Turnpike, Suite 3A, Short Hills, NJ 07078.

Her family would like to especially thank Nurse Julie for the compassion and caring she showed their mother, Mack for taking special care and brightening her days, and her neighbor Deb for her friendship.
