I met Ms. Washington in 2018, at a NCNW-Richmond Section meeting. She was so warm and accepting of new faces at the meetings. I looked forward to sharing words with her after every meeting. She was truly a woman of strength, and dignity. I will miss our interactions in the future. Family please know you are in my prayers and thoughts. Continue to treasure your memories. To God Be The Glory. Kathy B. Bagby

The Washington family has been a family friend for more than 50 years. I have enjoyed many delicious meals in their home. Working with Anna and Robin in the election precinct has been a pleasure. Our mornings would begin at 4:45 a.m.,with Robin to awaken us at 3:30 am. The ride home was enjoyable with thoughts of our waiting beds. My dear friend Anna will truly be missed. I wish for God's continued blessings on the Washington family. Gwendolyn Drayton

Anna Mae will be missed by all for years to come. I enjoyed the time I worked across the hall from Miss Anna for the time we were both at HSHS, because she always had a smile and a good word for her students and fellow teachers.

Anna Washington was a soul dedicated to God. She was one of those persons had to say little to leave strong impression. She was faithful to St. Philip's Episcopal Church and highly active as a leader in many activities and organizations. It was her clarity of mind (forever the teacher) and love of people of all strips. Having known her for a few short years, I loved her greatly and know that she will share eternity in the presence of God. Condolences to the family.

Anna Mae Washington was a lovely but bless person. Anna was the only person, other than my Mother, could get around to more places, but did not drive. I loved taking her & Mrs Lewis around. She was a talker, but very knowledgeable. She loved St Phillip Episcopal Church & the Girl Scout Troop. Anna is now at peace with the Lord. The family has my deepest sympathy, because she will be missed. RIP 🙏🏽✝️💙😇 Viesta Washington

Realizing that I was the oldest of 6 siblings she assisted me in applying for many scholarships including the Miss Virginia Randolph First scholarship. Upon entering her alma mater, Hampton Institute, she kept in close contact with me encouraging me in continuing my education. She was a very loving person and had a smile that would bring sunshine into your day. We will miss her.
