Anita Carol Hightower

Born Nov. 13, 1937 in Louisville, Anita graduated from Manual High in 1955, and in 1960 married the love of her life, Jim Hightower. She became the matriarch of a loving and close family.

Anita is survived by her children, Mikey, Steve (Linda), Saundra and Tim (Christina), sister Marge (Jennifer), 10 grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren.

Anita was a member of First Church of the Nazarene and was especially grateful for the many years of Christian learning and fellowship she enjoyed. Above all else, Anita enjoyed spending time with her family and friends. She lived the lesson of the Widow’s Mite and for anyone who needed, her door was open. She was a kind, generous and compassionate woman and she will be dearly missed.
