I am so sorry for your Loss! Anna had such a sweet spirit as a teenager and it continued as she grew older. My daughter Mitzi and Anna have been friends as long as I can remember. Anna would come to the house and spend the night and was such a blessing to have with us. Anna, you will be missed by all who knew you! My thoughts and prayers are with all her family and friends.

Carla Rose, I send love and condolences upon the passing of Anna. I remember the first time I saw her and you at a Parent-Teacher Conference at Goza during the 7th grade. She had this genuine, infectious smile that one couldn't help but respond to. I felt a connection with her and followed her through the years she and my son, Greg, were classmates. I know of her faith and her bravely facing the many challenges of her illness.
Praying for you and the rest of the family. I hold you dear in my heart.

I just seen Anna had past away. I send my condolences to her family.  I have been praying for her and her husband and family. I didn't even know she had been battling cancer until early last week. Found out through Facebook. I used to work with her alot at the hospital in the E.R  she was an awsome Nurse ,and her  compassion showed beond and above though her caring attitude and actions. We definitely lost a friend and  special  person who was a couragous women who  fought a difficult hard battle to be with her freinds and family here on his earth that she loved  so dearly. Anna influenced and encourged others around her and was an example for others to follow and live by.  She will be remembered in each one of our hearts that she touched but .never forgotten because of who she really was truly at heart. May God be with each and every one of you , and comfort your hearts during this difficult time to help us cope and manage a empty place now left in our lives that will be truly missed

I met Anna at CHI Hospital and we worked together in the Post Anesthesia Care Unit. She took great care of her patients and she was a very sweet and intelligent. I remember the love she had for her two girls and husband Aric O’Neal. I know that she is in heaven with Jesus and I am praying for healing for her family and friends. See you Anna when I get to heaven.

Anna Banana- (as you will always be remembered by me). Words cannot express the impression you made on my professional as well as personal life. I know you are an angel flying high in heaven with countless family and friends around you that have gone before you, and at Jesus' side.  This is the only thing that gives me any comfort at this tremendously sad time. I so enjoyed the two times we were able to hang out together in the last few months. I admired your continued optimism and attitude, through it all. I will forever love you and remember you. You are truly an unforgettable person. I am praying for your husband and daughter's hearts for God to somehow heal them and give them only the good memories they experienced with you. You are a warrior. I so admire your perseverance and attitude, even when you were going through so much pain and treatments. What an example you have been to us all. Thank you for your precious life and impression you made on everyone you came in contact with. I will love you forever, my precious friend. The last words you texted to me will always be in my heart. You said, "I love you so". Well, back at you, sister! I love you so!!! Forever, Linda Price

Remembering Anna Kate when she was younger at school in Arkadelphia.  One of Amber’s best friends and always smiling and laughing.  I’m so very sorry for the family’s loss. I will be praying for her family for healing.

Carla and Bob sending prayers to you. My sincere condolences.

You have crossed the bridge and now are surrounded by all the dogs you have fostered over the years. Rest in peace.

I worked with Anna in PACU, quite some time ago. She never left a detail drop for any of her patients. Dedicated, determined and always smiling is how I would describe her. I helped her serve at an outreach for the homeless, and she was a person who always took the opportunity to give. She will be missed by many, but she will be welcomed in heaven. I never got to see her children; her own and those she helped raise, but I know they were loved deeply. She was a woman of faith, and we were all blessed with her presence in our lives. My sincere condolences to her family.

I will always treasure our conversations on night shift. You were a bright spot in my life. No words can convey the love I have for you and the respect of who you were as a beautiful woman . My last words to you  was after I watched your baby getting baptized. I know you were so proud and happy. I sent you a picture I took of your baby and you told me you  had a big hug for me and that you wished I had caught you at church. I didn’t want to intrude on such a sweet family moment. I will always wish I had that hug. I won’t ever forget you and I love you forever.

I met Anna at the hospital soooo many years ago and we became instant friends. She was one of those people that just drew people to her. She had an infectious smile and her personality and love for people and life were unmatched. I have never met a better human. She truly was sunshine in human form. There will never be enough words to describe how missed she will be or how loved she was. She has touched more lives than I know she ever realized. She is a beacon of hope, and inspiration for so many. Rest easy my friend. Never forget, I love you great big bunches - always and forever 💜

Anna has been a blessing to so many & truly an Angel among us.  Wishing God’s Peace & Mercy to Anna’s Family during this difficult time. We share the Love & Loss of our dear Friend.

Oh Anna - this is so hard to comprehend.  Heaven gained a beautiful angel to watch over all of us.  You fought with so much courage and dignity. There will always be a void in our hearts and the nursing profession.  My prayers are with Aric, Emerson, and Lynnleigh. Extending prayers to all of your loved ones - family and friends.  You are loved. 

Charlene Rowell, RN .
