Anna Mae Jagodinsky of Manitowoc, WI, has passed away, leaving behind a family and community who loved her dearly.
Here is what we wish the world to know of Anna.
Anna held deeply to the Catholic faith — and was, by all accounts, loved by those who knew her best.
The community of faith holds its own well — and Anna was held.
Anna Mae Jagodinsky, 101, passed away Monday, May 4, 2026 at Shady Lane Nursing Home.
