She is a loving mother to five children: William Brigg, Hayden Gregory, Micah Sherod, Blythe Colleen and Tucker Levi and a loving grandmother to four grandchildren: Berkeley Anna, Hayden Ace, Frankie Joy and Arlo James Austin, expected to arrive in October, 2024.

Anna is the perfect mother to her five children and best grandmother to her 4 grandchildren. She loved being a part of her children’s and grandchildren’s life events and accomplishments. Attending sporting events, award banquets, and performances made her beam with pride.
