She left this world as gently as she lived in it, wrapped in the comfort of family and cherished memories. Anna was born on October 6, 1928, in Monticello, Indiana, to the late Gilbert and Mary ( Haas) Mitchell. From her earliest days, she carried within her quiet strength, tender heart, and a lifelong devotion to family and home. On May 29, 1947, Anna married the love of her life, Richard “Bob” Lawrie, at the United Methodist Church in Logansport. Their marriage was a beautiful testament to devotion, lasting 65 precious years, until his passing on July 7, 2012. Anna spent her life in Delphi and later Logansport, moving in with her daughter Mary, becoming the “Golden Girls”. She worked for RCA in Monticello and later at Ben Franklin in Delphi, where she worked for ten years. She devoted another decade to managing the Carroll County Senior Citizens Thrift Shop, a role she cherished deeply. There, she found joy not only in her work but in the friendships, she formed-sharing stories laughter and countless cups of coffee. Anna loved sewing, carefully stitching love into every project. She delighted in crossword puzzles. She took great pleasure in watching birds flutter outside her window and tending to her lovingly to her gardens, where flowers bloomed as brightly as her spirit. She treasured peaceful car rides and never turned down a trip to McDonald’s ! She is lovingly survived by her children, Robert” Bob” Lawrie (wife, Brenda) of Delphi, Mary Bell of Logansport and Sandy Carlson of Logansport; a brother-in-law, Gene Tackett of Oklahoma; eleven grandchildren, sixteen great grandchildren and twelve great great grandchildren.
