Anna was born December 6, 1930 in Chicago, Illinois to Joseph and Antonette Harowski, Anna Harowski grew up in Illinois where she was the youngest of five children. She graduated from Fenger High School in 1949 where Anna was the valedictorian of her graduating class. After marrying Robert Slowinski on February 3, 1951 they moved to South Holland, Illinois. They proceeded to have two children Suzanne and Robert. Anna belonged to St. Michael Ukrainian Orthodox Church where she and her husband sang in the choir and she taught Sunday School.

The family later moved to New Berlin, Wisconsin in 1972. Anna enjoyed going to numerous summer festivals and she especially enjoyed Octoberfest where she loved to dance all night. Watching her children perform at school events and of course enjoying Friday night fish fries with her friends was an absolute favorite.

After retiring from Customer Service at Empire Fish, she and her husband moved up north to their home in Arkdale, WI. They joined St. Joseph Catholic Church in Friendship. Anna was a member of the ladies club where she baked goodies for the many bake sales and helped out for the luncheons, etc. Anna couldn’t wait for spring where she could plant flowers and sit on her porch outside working on her many favorite crossword puzzles. In the fall she would start canning from her garden and donate vegetables to the church on Sunday’s.

Anna and her husband enjoyed getting together with family – especially their grandchildren where they would cheer them on at many sporting and dance events.

Anna later moved to Mission Creek in Waukesha, WI where she enjoyed many activities and met her newest best friend – Fran. In the 1 year+ she spent at Mission Creek, Anna made many new friends and was recently recognized as the resident of the month.
