On October 25, 1952 she married Steve Vezurk at St. Stanislaus Catholic Church in Anderson, and they were married 64 years before his passing in 2016. Together they built a life around faith and family. She loved St. Stanislaus Church and was a faithful member for over 70 years. Her family was her life, and no matter how large it grew, everyone was always welcomed and loved.

When she was younger, she was a seamstress for Turner and Pierce. Later, she helped cook at Trailriders Café in Anderson with her sister-in-law, Pearl Busa. This is where her legendary pies were made. After that, she found her true passion, caring for children, especially babies as she worked at Anderson Daycare with good friend, Marian Floyd until she was physically unable. If you truly wanted to see Grandma’s beautiful smile, then let her hold a baby for a few minutes.

Anna Mae was a wonderful cook and if you ever had a chance to try her cooking, you would not have been disappointed. She always had plenty for everyone to take home. She was known for her delicious pies and making each family member’s favorites, even if it was more than she had counter space for. She loved to gamble and trips to the casinos with her family were her favorite. Grandma spoke often of the trips she took with her sister and sisters-in-law to Las Vegas. She also loved her garden and especially fresh vegetables, even canning some squash a few days before she passed away.

She was preceded in death by her husband Steve; her parents Joseph and Francis Busa; brother and sisters-in-law, Alfred and Vicki Busa, Edmund and Verlyn Busa; sister and brother-in-law, Margaret and David Sechelski; sisters, Frances Lois and Janie Wisnoski; sister-in-law, Pearl Busa and her husband David; and brother-in-law Raymond Burzynski. All of whom she missed dearly everyday of her life.

The family would like to offer a special thanks to Brazos Valley Hospice for their loving care over the last 2 years, especially Jenny, Chevan and Pauline.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests all donations be made to St. Stanislaus Catholic CCE Building fund in her memory.
