Condolences may be made to the family at www.NeeldFuneralHome.com. Anolie was kind, compassionate and full of love and laughter. She loved caring for young children and adored her great grandchildren. As a devout woman of faith, she found great comfort in scripture study and prayer. From a young age, family time with siblings and cousins was very special. As her own family grew, she cherished any time the family spent together. She lovingly cared for her husband Bob and set a true example of God’s love. She was known as a mother, grandmother, aunt and neighbor, but to all that knew and loved her, she was not just family, but a best friend.
