Anna spent her life as a devoted housewife, raising three boys with love and care. She took pride in keeping a welcoming home, and the kitchen was her domain, where she cooked up meals for family and friends, always reminding everyone "This is my kitchen".
She was a fan of the Michigan Wolverines and enjoyed spending time watching her favorite shows like "Reba" and Dukes of Hazzard". But most of all she cherished her group of close friends and cherished her grandchildren, whom she showered with love and attention.
Halloween held a special place in Anna's heart, as it was not only a time for fun and festivities but also closely tied to her birthday, making it an extra meaningful celebration for her and her family.
Anna leaves behind her husband of 31 years, Harold Houchins; her three Sons, Mark (Carly) Gilliland, Chris Houchins, and Eric Houchins; grandchildren Harper Gilliland and Teagan Gilliland; Siblings, Sherrie (Raj) Chinthakindi, Delbert Clason, Chuck (the late Carla) Clason, Barbara Clason, Sharon Clason, Carol Clason, Lovell Clason and David Clason.
She is preceded in death by her parents and her brother Robert Clason.
Anna will be truly missed by everyone who knew her, especially by her furbaby Fergus.
A visitation for Anna will be held Saturday, October 5, 2024, from 3:00 PM until 8:00 PM, at Edward Swanson and Son Funeral Home, 30351 Dequindre Rd., Madison Heights, MI 48071
