Anna was born on January 7, 1923 to Carlo Signorino and Domenica Marchisio in Orio Canavese, Italy. Anna attended grade school in Orio and learned domestic skills from nuns in the Alps. She went on to work in rice fields and help on her family farm in northern Italy.
Anna met her future husband, Dominick, when his family returned to Orio from the United States. Anna and Dominick were married in Orio in 1947 and soon after decided to emigrate to the United States. Anna worked in a bakery for many years while Dominick continued his career as a machinist. Together they had one child, Diana.
Following Anna's retirement, she spent much of her time sewing, cooking and gardening at her San Gabriel home, which she dearly loved. Anna was well known for her amazing gardening abilities and the rows of roses adorning her home.
Anna was predeceased by her beloved husband Dominick, her sister Maria and her brother Giovanni. She is survived by her daughter Diana Deandrea and her grandson Andrew Degner.
Services will be held at the San Gabriel Mission in San Gabriel CA on Monday February 7, 2022 at 10:00 AM.
