Born in Irvington, NJ, she had lived in Manchester, CT for many years. Anna had a tremendous love of family and sports, and was an avid fan of the New York Yankees and the New York Jets. Her passion for the Yankees was endless, beginning at the age of 13 cheering for the Newark Bears (a New York Yankees Farm Team) all the way to the present, cheering on her team and favorite Yankee of all time Derek Jeter. Dining out with family and friends was also a great joy for Anna, especially for a cheeseburger or chili hot dog.

Dunn, Jr. dear family friend Elaine Otero of Manchester, her daughter Susan Awtry and her husband Robert of Valencia, CA, grandchildren Keith and Kyle Awtry of California, and great-grandchildren Taylor and David Johnson and Gwen Awtry.
