Anna M. James

Elmira: On June 14, 2024 the Lord gently enfolded his daughter Anna in His arms and carried her to her Heavenly home. Anna was born in Dravosburg PA a daughter of Henry and Alice (Fisher) Klein. She is predeceased by her husband Herbert F. James, son Daniel F. James, daughter and son-in-law Mary and Terry Sheehan, brothers and sisters-in-law, William and Frances Klein, Thomas and Faye Klein, sisters and brothers-in-law Dorothy and Randall Irwin, Margaret and Anthony Gabauer, Cleta and Anthony Jarzombek.

Anna was a communicant of St. Mary’s Church, Southside. A special loving woman who will be missed more than words can express, Anna was deeply loved by her family and friends and, with her passing, she takes a piece of our hearts.
