Anita loved spending time with her family. She was always the life of the party. She was never one to miss a last call or a good laugh. She taught us how to toast to the good times. She loved nothing more than sharing a drink with her favorite people. She brought so much joy to our family and laughter where ever she went. Though our time together was far too short, the love she gave will remain with all of us forever. She'll be missed dearly by all her family and friends. Funeral service will be held 5:00 p.m. Monday March 9, 2026 at the Wellman Funeral Home, Circleville. Burial will be in Forest Cemetery. Friends may call from 3-5 p.m. on Monday.
