Anne was born on Oct. 14, 1937, the daughter of Everett M. and Edna E. (Butler) Klukkert in Delhi.

Anne worked for many years at Eastman Kodak until her retirement in 1986. She and her husband then moved to Selkirk, during which time she became a librarian at the Ravena Community Public Library.

Anne was a loving wife, mother, and grandmother. She was a talented baker and made wonderful cookies, pies, cakes, and brownies.
