My condolences to the entire Chilson Clan. Anita was a fixture of my entire childhood, my second mom. I am sure that others would consider her their second mom as well. Her loving hugs, her singing Barbra Streisand songs, drinking chocolate milk and visits on the front porch are just a few of the memories that come to me regularly.
