She is survived by her husband of 43 years, Mr. Garold “Jerry” Emil Hartsock; daughters Karen Colvin-Nance (Jim), Christa Hartsock Davis (Matt), Michelle Hodgin and Lisa Callaway (Gus), and beloved son Kurt E. Hartsock; grandchildren Clark Colvin, Matthew, Champ and Brooke Davis, Laura and Sarah Hodgin, Mayson (Erin) Callaway and Chrissy Callaway. She also leaves behind a sister-in-law, niece and 3 nephews. Anna devoted her life to loving and caring for her family and took pride in keeping an immaculate home. She enjoyed a life full of international travel with Jerry and particularly enjoyed channeling her inner cowgirl in Wyoming, both on horse and snowmobile. She loved to garden and spent many years preparing delicious meals for her family from the fruit and vegetables she harvested. She will be missed on Friday nights as her tradition with Jerry for 40 years was dining at their favorite Mexican restaurant. She was one of a kind. She asked so little and gave so much.
