To the family. I pray God comfort you during this difficult time. Anita was my friend for over 40 years. She was such a beautiful person inside and out. I will never forget her and I cherish the memories. Heaven has gained an angel. My deepest sympathy and prayers. It really does not seem real but I find comfort knowing Anita was saved and loved God.She is now with our heavenly Father. God bless the family. Esther Adefope

Ms. Anita was my oldest sons first preschool teacher and we loved her. I always said that I wished we could have packed her up and moved her with us to Murfreesboro. Ms. Anita was a wonderful person with a good heart but I know she is rejoicing in heaven and loving on all the children. She will be truly missed. LaShonda Bracey

I will never forget Ms. Anita. She was my babysitter for my baby girl. In the short time I knew her, she made such a impact on mine and my childrens lives. She was always so loving, kind, generous, and most of all her love for God shined through brighter than any candle or light that could be seen. I will miss how good she was with her little kids. You could tell that she genuinely loved the babies, and they loved her!! God must have needed her more than we did, but man will we miss her. But I feel safe knowing that I have one more angel on my side looking over us and protecting us. One last thing is that every morning and afternoon when I would drop off my baby, I would always see an abundance of cardinals in her trees or yard. And we would always discuss how her loved ones spirits was still with her. I love you and miss you Ms. Anita and never will forget you. And will make sure Annelease (Your Sunshine) will never forget you!! Rest In Peace you beautiful angel!!! Love Always. Shannon, Mackenzie, and Annelease
