Anna was one of my favorite people to work with during my career. She was very intelligent and always brought levity to challenging matters. My family and I will light a candle and say a prayer.

The Cappellina Family

Anna - I knew we would become great friends from the first day we met at the office.  I loved working with you in the law office, and had so much fun at your comedy performances.  I wore bright colors, an election-year suitable tshirt and a scarf from my "Anna Collection" to your memorial celebration of life on Sunday.  Sorry, but there is nothing in my wardrobe supporting the Lakers, or Star Wars themed.  No tiaras.  LOL.  I will miss you in this life, and hope to see you when we come back.  Love always, Alice Evergreen

Anna and I shared many things, among them a birthday, only-child status and a love for champagne. Like many have remarked, she was a bright light--a kind, generous human, always willing to help anyone who needed it.

I will miss her forever and treasure our times together.

I briefly met Anna at her cousin Ravi's wedding a few years ago.  Even from that brief encounter, I could immediately tell what a vibrant, outgoing, and beautiful person she was.  She was engaging, charming, and personable - all within the span of maybe a ten minute conversation.  I'm certain she'll be missed and my thoughts and best hopes and wishes are with her family.

While we did not remain in touch, Anna and I shared kinship both in law and comedy.  She was there for me during a pivotal time in my life and I will be forever grateful for her kindness.   Thank you, Anna.  You will be dearly remembered.

Though time passed quickly since our WS days, I still remember her wit and humor, kindness and generosity, her love for Star Wars, The Lakers, and all things related to debate, the law, and the school newspaper...  A bright soul taken too soon. Sending our deep condolences to Vimala, Ravi, and to all of Anna's nearest and dearest.  

May the force be with you in the higher galaxy, Anna. 💜💛

Anna we love you and you will always be a part of our journey. May you be blessed. Andy and Susan Kang

Anna was active in community organizations for a number of years and accomplished in many arenas. Our deepest condolences to all family and friends.

I'm so deeply sorry for your loss. Anna was a beautiful soul who radiated love, kindness, and empathy and who had a gift for making people laugh. May her memory be forever a blessing to you.

My deepest sympathies to Anna’s family and close friends. She was too young. Anna was a leader in the South Asian Bar Association having served a president of not one but two chapters in additional to serving on the SABA North America as President in addition to a variety of other roles.

My deepest condolences on passing of Anna. I am in a shock. We lost a great friend and a super lawyer. May you rest in peace🙏
