Anna the first woman to receive a Master's degree in Chemistry from the University of Pennsylvania.

A life rich in adventures and challenges and happiness, from seeing electricity and autos come to Pennsylvania, to excellence at University, to being a devoted wife, and my experience of her as an engaged and caring grandmother. This is a tough time for all of us. And in the midst of it all, I celebrate the many happy family experiences we have all had together. —grandson Jeff Baierlein
