Anita worked for the Waupun Utilities for over twenty years. She enjoyed her time volunteering at Waupun Memorial Hospital. Anita and Orville were avid golfers and spent many hours together at the Rock River Country Club in Waupun. They also traveled on many golfing vacations to Door County with several close friends. She was a member of St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, where she enjoyed fellowship in the ceramic craft classes. Anita relocated to Greenville six years ago to be near family, and enjoyed that area and her many friends at Living Tree Estates.
