This was a terrible shock. I really loved talking with Anita at work. She was very sweet. I am praying for the family and I hope that you will find peace in God. Blessings to her family!

I will so miss her smiling face and the long conversations we had. I always looked forward to meeting with her on my trips to Des Monies while she worked there.
What a wonderful Lady.

To Anita's family-
Anita was an angel to everyone she knew and she has the most kindest heart I have ever known. There are so many descriptive words that I could say about Anita on how loving, kind, her wonderful smile, her beauty and love she had for family and friends. She will be missed greatly by the Nationwide family here in Des Moines and in Columbus. My deepest condolence for your loss. Thoughts and prayers to all of you.

Breanne,
Your mother was the most wonderful, kind-hearted, gentle, sweet person I have ever known. Her smile would light up a room along with her wonderful cheesecake. Your mother and I worked on a project starting 2004 and I knew from talking to her then, we would be life long friends and we certainly were. Her and I would have endless hours of conversations about life, family and most importantly God. My heart aches knowing I won't be able to have those deep personal conversations with her ever again. But knowing that she is a guardian angel watching over all of us brings comfort and a smile to my heart. She was blessed to have so many friends here in Des Moines and Columbus that loved her deeply.
I can tell you in many of our deep conversations, when she talked about you, I could tell her heart was full of so much love and pride that she had for you. Your mom was so very proud of you with all of your successes in life. You are the best thing that ever happened in her life. Your mom was a guardian angel here on earth and she will be a wonderful guardian angel in heaven.
Goodbye for now my dearest friend Anita until I see you again. Love you so much.

Anita was such a beautiful woman and her greatest beauty came from the love God instilled in her heart; a love she generously shared with others. I am so thankful as my life is enriched for having known Anita. Though we had only a few opportunities to see each other, we had some of the most uplifting conversations. She is an inspiration to me and I am genuinely a better person for having known Anita. When I think of her I can only smile. I rejoice for her that she is now with her First Love, however my heart is sad for the family she has left behind for I know how greatly she loved, so it only stands to reason that she was greatly loved in return. My prayers are with all of you at this time of loss. May you feel His love and comfort.

Anita was a special lady with a gift to bring joy to anyone. I remember working with her in Des Moines and seeing her smiling face. Regardless of the day I was having, just seeing her positivity and smile made me smile and feel better. Like I said it was a gift. I don't think Anita had a single bad word to say about anyone, and would always have something positive to say about any given person or situation.

Anita was most kind and sweetest person I have ever met. She will be greatly missed. My thoughts and hugs to Breanne.

Message from Carol Hall

Breanne,
I was on your Moms team for a long time. Retired a few years ago. Want to say that your Mom was so kind and caring. She was so very proud of you.
She gave from her heart and was a very good friend.
I am so sorry for your loss.
Carol

Hi Breanne,

The news was a shock, I didn't realize Anita was ill. May the God of your understanding provide you peace and comfort through this journey. I'm so glad Anita was able to move closer to you. Cherish the many memories and know that your Guardian Angel is forever with you. Your Mom was upbeat, always had a smile and kind words (soft spoken and gentle). You and your family (Anita's family) are in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless!
