Precious Anita, I am heartbroken!  I am still having a difficult time processing that my dear, spunky, larger than life friend Is gone.  I am so grateful to have met you in water aerobics. I loved you and I will so miss you and our brunches and our wacky conversations.  I know that you were ready for heaven, but I wonder was heaven ready for you?!!  I’ll bet you caused quite a stir when you arrived.  It will be a lot more fun now.  I’m wondering if there’s a La Madeleine up there.
Until we meet again!!
Judy

Anita, 
We enjoyed so many things together, working  at Foster, our Sundays at the Symphony,  playing Bridge at our friends’ homes, visiting one another at different times and in different seasons. Dear Anita you filled my life with joy and my heart with your love. Friends forever 🙏🏼.

Anita was our next door neighbor from 1998 until we moved to the lake in 2018.  We loved her so much.  Whether it was sharing a glass of wine or a meal of catfish at Big Shucks, we enjoyed her company. 
 We especially looked forward to chatting with her in the driveway or through her open window.  She was an elegant, stylish woman who will greatly be missed.  Although we mourn her loss on this Earth, we are relieved she is now out of pain and in the hands of God.  Godspeed, Anita.

Anita was a very dear and special friend.   We first met when she moved to Dallas and began substituting at Foster Elem.  in DISD.  Elementary school was different from her previous experience,  but she was a natural.  We worked together until her retirement.  I even traveled with her to Iraan, TX (outside Odessa) to work her last day in a district  that would help her secure her Social Security benefits.   We had a memorable experience painting walls!  We shared many more joys and adventures through the years.  I was honored to visit her just three weeks ago and bring her an apple pie that she was craving.  We got to express our love and appreciation for our friendship.    I will cherish that time forever and miss her terribly!


Mrs. Platt was one of the best educators I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with at our former school. She will be truly missed. What a joy it was to be able to join her and friends playing Bridge weekly. God blessed and keep your family safe.  I’ll miss  my fellow Arkansas friend.


I enjoyed Anita's friendship after meeting  in the Aqua Zumba class and going to our monthly birthday lunch group.  We all appreciated her wonderful sense of humor!  She was a wonderful person, and we sorely miss her.   Here's a photo of our lunch group from 2017.
I'm standing right behind her.

Anita, my wife Mary, and I went to the Ft. Worth Ballet together in 2017.  I had never been to a ballet before, and it became obvious I was being accompanied by two gracious classy ladies as they so enjoyed the ballet and I rolled my macho eyes at the performance. We enjoyed a meal together, I being privileged to do what these two old friends had done often, and we went our separate ways after discussing the need to visit the ballet again, any maybe the opera.  We really enjoyed each other’s company.

Anita was a member of the Aquacise class I taught at Finley Ewing Cardiovascular Center in Dallas. She was an absolute delight and made many friends there. Always friendly, very spunky, great sense of humor! She left a big hole when she was not able to attend. We mourn her passing along with the family and I am so blessed that I got to call her my friend!

Anita will be dearly missed. My true friend for so many years. My prayers are with you all during this time.
