Anna Shoeman, 42, passed away Thursday, November, 24, 2022 at MercyOne Hospital in Des Moines due to a sudden illness. A celebration of life will be will held from 6-10 p.m. on Monday, December, 5, 2022 at West End Architectural Salvage, 22 SW 9th St, Des Moines, IA.
Anna was born April 25, 1980 in Des Moines, Iowa. She was a 1998 graduate of Valley High School and received her bachelor’s degrees in both Interior Design and Psychology from Iowa State University in 2004. She was a long-time employee of Wells Fargo, a part time Interior Designer and fostered dogs for Forever Home Dog Rescue. Anna was a lover of animals, and her pets, or “fur babies” meant more than anything to her. She loved The Beatles, Harry Potter and laughing REALLY hard. She loved children and often preferred their company over adults.
Anna is survived by her parents, Gordon and Janet Shoeman of West Des Moines; sister, Jessica (Nick) Borror of Windsor Heights; two Dogs, Finley and Ludo; and two cats, Abbey and Ramses. Finley and Ludo will now be loved by Anna’s sister, and Abbey and Ramses will be receiving endless pets from Anna’s parents. Anna will be greatly missed, however… “Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da”
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made to Forever Home Dog Rescue at foreverhomedogs.org.
