Ana Maria lived in Cuba until Castro took over and her mother decided to move them to Florida on May 27, 1962. It was a day she never forgot. She was 17 years old. She was a hard worker her whole life, always providing for her two daughters. She attended night school to learn English. Her favorite job was when she worked in a small jewelry store in Miami where she learned to make and repair jewelry. Jewelry-making became a hobby for her later on in life.
Ana was deeply rooted in her faith and devoted to her daughters and their families. She was always looking out for the well-being of others. She loved to play games, especially cards, with her friends and grandchildren. She was a wonderful cook and cherished her Cuban meals. She always had a smile to brighten the day. She will be dearly missed by her loved ones.
She is survived by her loving daughters Ana (Matthew) Richey and Maria (Timothy) Mihm, and beloved grandchildren Katherine (Taylor) Bryde, Zachary Richey, Daniel Mihm, Emily Mihm, Katelyn Richey and Emma Richey.
She is preceded in death by her parents Antonio Mitchell & Maria Rojas.
Memorial Service will be held on July 3, 2021 at Incarnation Catholic Church in Sarasota.
Robert Toale & Sons Funeral Home is entrusted with final care.
