Anna "Anne" L. Henry, 98, formerly of Walnut Hill Road, Millersville, passed away at the Mennonite Home on Sunday, February 6, 2022. She was born in Chesapeake, WV, to the late Luke and Mary (Shimko) Tonkovich. The oldest of 9 children, Anne helped her mother raise her siblings. She graduated from Fairmount High School, Fairmount, WV.
She worked at Westinghouse while living in West Virginia. During World War II Anne went on a double date, met her future husband Carl who was in the Army, and then on a three day pass they were married. Anne and Carl spent 62 years of marriage together before his death in 2008. Once settled in Millersville, she worked at Hamilton Watch during the War, and then was a wonderful homemaker for Carl and their children. She was a loving caregiver to Carl when his health failed.
A member of Grace Baptist Church of Millersville, Anne sang in the choir, and taught Sunday School. She was an avid reader, enjoying health books and reading the entire Bible several times. Anne loved tending to her vegetable and flower garden. She also loved the company of her many dogs.

The family would like to express their appreciation to the staff at the Mennonite Home and Dr. James Spicher for their loving and exceptional care over many years.
