Reva was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 67 years, Martin, and by her cherished daughter, Mary Jo Anastasi.
She is survived by her children; Catherine (Craig) Svendsen, Robert (Vanessa) Denk, Patricia (Michael) Joyce, son-in-law Steven Anastasi, grandchildren; Rebecca (Daniel) Baltzer, Matthew (Amanda) Svendsen, Emily (Todd) Lachinski, Douglas (Brittany) Svendsen, Michael (Jennifer) Svendsen, Reiva Denk, Caitlin (Andrew) Wold, Margaret (Kai) Ludwig, Martin (Katherine) Joyce, Caroline Joyce and fiancé Nicholas Cross, Ellen Joyce, Kevin Joyce, Julia (Alec) Albright, Nicholas (Emma) Anastasi and Maria (Michael) Berg. Also, 21 great grandchildren with 2 on the way.
Reva loved spending time with her family. She was a fierce game player, never one to let the grandchildren or great grandchildren win without earning it. Reva was a talented sewer and knitter, who lovingly shared her creations and patiently taught anyone eager to learn.
The family would like to acknowledge the wonderful care and kindness of the staff of the Memory Care Unit at St Therese of Woodbury.
Private Mass of Christian Burial and interment at Fort Snelling National Cemetery.
