Anna Aurora Csernyant nee Curjos, passed away peacefully at her home with loved ones on December 14, 2024, at the age of 87. She was a resident of St. Clair Shores, Michigan for 58 years. Beloved wife of the late Eli Csernyant for 67 years. Loving mother of Eli (Jean) Csernyant, the late Steven (Laura Lee) Csernyant, Rhonda (David) Boeberitz, Laura (James) Knieper, Melinda (Thomas) Fetter. Proud and loving grandmother of Eli, Kimberly, Abigail, Racheal, William, Phoebe, Jason, Jessica, and Jaquelyn. She is also survived by her sister Eleanor (Michael) Smith and many nieces and nephews.
Anna met the love of her life, Eli, through the church. Shortly thereafter they married and started their family. The love and respect they had for each other was Legendary. Anna and Eli set the example of what Love is. The house was always filled with joy and laughter, and the occasional stack table tossed at you or a plate of spaghetti dumped on your head! She will be truly missed by her family.
At a young age she taught Sunday school at Descent of the Holy Ghost Church in Detroit. She worked for the City of Detroit, local dime store, and Ramona movie theater. After she raised her 5 children, she worked as a librarian at Wheat Elementary School and worked with hearing-impaired children at Harmon Elementary School. She finished her career as a manager at Something Special Hallmark card store.
She held tightly to her faith in God throughout her life.
Mrs. C (which she was commonly referred to by her children’s friends) had a heart of gold and always welcomed people into her home with open arms.
She will be fondly remembered as a caring, loving wife, mother, grandma and friend.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks that you donate to Compassus Living Foundation Organization of Warren, Michigan.
