Obituary of Anna Marie Campagna

Anna Marie Campagna on February 17, 2019 of Voorhees NJ, formerly of Longport NJ and South Philadelphia PA, age 91.

Anna Marie attended St. Rita’ s grade school and graduated from Hallahan High School Class of 1945.  She was a link in the chain of friendship between five amazing women which began in grade school and has continued for 85 years.  In 1946 she married Albert and they remained married for 68 years until his death in 2014. Anna Marie was dedicated to her son Anthony, and devoted much of her time to his many health issues. Her grandchildren were the light and love of her life, and she was always involved in their lives supporting them through all their milestones.  She was so proud of their career choices in medicine and law.  Becoming a great-grandmother was her crown of joy.
