Anna
Longbrake (Mock) Class 1944 |
|
|
|
|
|
With the very dignity and grace she displayed through- out her life, Anna L.
Mock age 85 peacefully passed away on Thursday, June 6, 2013, in South Bend,
Indiana. Born in Brunswick, Maryland, Anna was a longtime resident of Leesburg,
Virginia, until mov- ing to South Bend, Indiana in 2010, where she quickly
and comfortably made Indiana her second home. Her final journey will see her
return back home to Leesburg, where she will be reunited with her beloved
husband of 59 years, Richard, who pre- deceased her in 2006. |
|
|
Anna,
born the fourth and youngest daughter of Thomas and Anna Longbrake, was
predeceased by her three elder sisters Frances, Gertrude, and Grace. A
wonderful and loving wife, Anna was a mother of two, son Richard (Peggy) Mock
of South Bend, Indiana, and daughter Anne (Daniel) Fox of Leesburg, a
grandmother of six, Stephanie (Mike) Jackson, Benjamin (Lauren) Fox, Emily
Mock, Sarah Fox, and Marshall and Spencer Mock, and a great grandmother of
three, Ambrielle, Timothy, and Leah Jackson, all of whom survive her. |
|
|
Anna
graduated from Brunswick High School and secretarial school. Her first full
time job was as an administrative assistant at the United States Commerce
Department in Washington, D.C., where she became an expert in the now lost
art of shorthand. |
|
|
On July
12, 1947 Anna married her high school sweetheart, Richard, starting their
lives together at age nineteen, marrying just one day before his twentieth
birthday. Their love for each other stood the test of time. She later became
a full-time mother and always made a beautiful home for her family. |
|
|
Anna
had an infectious laugh and a great sense of humor. She was a great audience,
when anyone would tell a joke, good or bad; they could always count on at
least one laugh in the room with Anna. She was a warm and caring person who
had many friends. |
|
|
Anna
had a variety of interests over her lifetime: singing in the church choir,
playing piano and organ, and she enjoyed listening to many types of music.
Anna loved to watch sports. She and Richard were longtime Washington Redskin
season ticket holders. Anna loved to travel, with Bermuda and Hawaii being
two of her favorite destinations. Anna loved fashion, clothes, shoes, and
jewelry were her favorites, and she wore them well. Anna was always
"dressed to the nines". |
|
|
A memorial service will be held to celebrate her life on Saturday July 13,
2013 at 1 PM at the Loudoun Funeral Chapel in Leesburg. Anna's family would
be honored if you can attend. |
|
|
Anna was loved by all who knew
her, and she will be sorely missed. Anna's last request for family, friends,
or anyone reading about her life for the first time was that you offer some
act of kindness to |

seriously." He was a generous and sincere man. He gave entirely of
himself and what he had to whoever needed it. He was a man of deep affection
for knowing God and walking with Him and living out his faith in the most
practical ways of daily life. He left this world a thankful man for the full
life he lived. |

|
His
greatest treasures were his 2 grandchildren who call him Big Daddy. His
legacy is left through them. The same joy, humor and love Tim was known for
is abundant in these 2 tiny personalities. |

friends also formed a committee called, "America's Bravest". They
were responsible for sending hundreds of care packages to our wonderful men
and women serving in Iraq. Packages were also sent with toys and clothing for
the children of Iraq. She will be remembered and missed mostly for her good
